About Us
Since the commencement of the development programs in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the five-year development plans have sought to create a development platform aiming at implementing the saudization of several jobs in various sectors, especially the health sector, where the Kingdom has relied for a long period of time on non-Saudi health professionals. The plan brought out the dire need for the establishment of health educational foundations, institutes, academies, colleges and universities concerned with qualifying the national human resources in this field.
In light of the fact that education and training are fundamental to the development and growth process, the Saudi Kingdom took every effort to support the public and higher education sectors. This has been driven by an extensive vision to provide a balanced development among various regions across the country. The Saudi Kingdom succeeded to manage the largest development plan in higher education resulting in a massive breakthrough of Saudi universities which reached 24 governmental universities in addition to 27 private universities and colleges.
Starting from this point, Al-Ghad International Colleges for Applied Medical Sciences opened its arms widely to welcome students across various campuses spread throughout the Kingdom. The colleges served in the preparation and qualification of Saudi professionals; contributed in training and promoting the skills needed for the health service field within the Kingdom; provided female and male students with outstanding scientific knowledge and individual skills in order to enhance their ability to compete in the local, Arab and international labor market; contributed to open the prospects for scientific research in various fields; and, last but not least, the colleges met the continuing needs of the society in the areas of economic, social and technical development.
Al-Ghad International Colleges for Applied Medical Sciences reflects a value-added, modern vision in the health education field. The colleges strive to provide the best educational services and facilities to achieve the highest levels of education and training aiming to ensure the best learning outcomes.
