MDC SA has developed a unique partnership with University of South Africa (UNISA) to offer locally supported distance education programmes specifically for working people.

UNISA – The “MEGA” University

The main partner of MDC SA for this programme is the highly regarded University of South Africa (UNISA) – classed as one of the 11 leading very large universities. Founded in 1873, UNISA gained its University Royal Charter in 1876. It became the world’s first completely Distance Education University in 1946.

MDC SA is delighted to work with UNISA in the development of these programmes, and has an excellent reputation for the delivery of distance education to busy individuals.
