The Good Stuff
Fashion training
The fashion design course covers drawing, sewing and turning designs into finished work, with clear explanations and strong organisation.
Flexible hours
A review says the management provided flexible learning hours that suited the trainee, useful if your schedule is tight.
Course structure
Some learners describe the diplomas as well structured, with dense, well-prepared material and access to speakers during the course.
Art therapy
The art therapy course helped one learner expand their understanding and encouraged them to pursue further specialisation.
Helpful support
Several reviews describe staff as cooperative and available to arrange course needs or help participants.
Tips for a Better Visit
Confirm timings. Before paying, get the agreed course timetable in writing and ask how schedule changes will be handled.
Check syllabus. For accounting or similarly long programmes, confirm the session count and coverage so the course is not compressed unexpectedly.
Ask class size. For practical art therapy, ask how many people will attend and whether activities are face to face.
Track lessons. Keep the lecture dates and follow-ups recorded; one learner said they had to remind the institute about class times.
Clarify refunds. Read the withdrawal and refund terms before paying, especially if you may cancel before attending.

Common Concerns
Course delays
One accounting-course review reports postponed classes, rushed explanations and a programme completed in only two sessions.
Schedule changes
A learner says course timings changed after payment, creating a problem for those relying on the originally agreed schedule.
Refund dispute
One reviewer says a refund was refused after paying but before attending any classes.
Small classes
A practical art therapy course had so few participants that group activities became difficult.
Missing lessons
Another reviewer reports paying for lessons that did not take place and waiting months for a resolution.

The Bottom Line
ALTANMYA ALMUSTDAMA TRAINING INSTITUTE is an education centre in Al Garhoud with a broad professional-learning focus. Reviews give the clearest picture through specific courses: visitors have taken pottery classes, studied fashion design from drawing and sewing through design execution, explored art therapy, and completed diplomas in diplomatic and international relations and protocol and etiquette. The stronger experiences centre on organised teaching, cooperative support and instructors who explain material clearly.
Learners also mention flexible learning hours, dense course content and the chance to connect with speakers. The pottery feedback adds a more creative, hands-on angle, with participants making pieces they wanted to repeat. There is a meaningful caution around administration and course delivery.
Some reviewers report postponed or missing lessons, changing timings after payment, and difficulty obtaining refunds. One accounting-course complaint says a programme intended to run for months was completed in two lectures, while another reviewer waited months for a resolution after lessons did not appear. Before enrolling, confirm the timetable, number of sessions, class size and refund terms in writing.
This matters particularly for practical courses: one art therapy learner found the very small group made activities harder, despite enjoying the material.
