The service is extended towards students to achieve the mandatory 100 hours of Community Service needed for students to graduate.

Leadership program

The goal of the HCT Leadership programs is to empower students with 21st century skills in a vibrant campus environment engaged with their local communities. The programs available help develop students into well-rounded adults with strong academic and soft skills

Youth Leadership Program

The Youth Leadership Program is aimed at current and future HCT students that will recognize students’ potential and encourage their development as future leaders in society.

Recreation

The HCT aims to promote sports and health awareness among students and staff by creating an environment which enhances the values of teamwork, leadership and life-long health and well-being.

All campuses provide opportunities for students to fulfill their needs and practise their hobbies, including sports activities, gym classes, special courses and professional seminars on health awareness. A college-based nurse is also available at some colleges.

Health and Wellness

The HCT actively promotes healthy living and engages in many activities throughout the year to raise awareness of general health issues and those specifically relevant to the UAE, such as diabetes and thalassemia.

Sports

Sport is an integral part of the HCT learning experience. Facilities vary at each college, however ongoing activities allow students to take part in a wide range of sports throughout the academic year.

Students are encouraged to participate in sporting activities in order to develop teamwork and leadership skills, in addition to the health benefits.

Many of the HCT campuses have football fields, tennis courts, basketball courts, swimming pools, athletic tracks and/or trails for jogging and walking. The HCT provides sports instructors to assist students with their individual or team activities.
