📖 Our Story

From Passion to Profession

Jex Institute was born from a simple observation: Dubai's thriving café scene needed professionals who could do more than just push buttons on an espresso machine.

Founded in 2018, we set out to create a training center that mirrors the reality of modern cafĂ© operations. Our founders—industry veterans with decades of combined experience—designed a curriculum that bridges the gap between the roastery, the espresso bar, and the pastry kitchen.

Today, we are proud to be a UAE Government-licensed international training institute, offering attested certifications that open doors across the Emirates and beyond.
