The document discusses several partnerships between UMUC and other universities to offer joint programs in distance education. Specifically: - UMUC has a longstanding partnership with Oldenburg University in Germany to offer a dual Master's in Distance Education, with UMUC and Oldenburg dividing responsibilities. - UMUC also partners with HBMeU in the UAE, allowing HBMeU students to take additional UMUC courses to earn a dual degree in distance education starting in 2012. - Additionally, UMUC offers an MDE certificate as part of degrees through Unisa in South Africa, providing professional development for Unisa faculty as well. This program began in summer 2012.
