- The University of Nottingham (UoN? NU?) does not have an office or campus in Dubai, however, their PGCE International (PGCEi) by distance learning is available. Either directly through Nottingham University in the UK, or through Stafford Associates in Dubai.
- Note that the UoN Postgraduate Certificate in Education (International) (PGCEi) is not the same as the Post-Graduate Certificate of Education (PGCE) commonly studied in the UK which leads to Qualified Teacher Status (QTS), and might not be accepted as a teaching qualification at all schools, especially the more highly regarded UK curriculum schools in Dubai such as Dubai College, DESC Dubai, DESS Dubai. The UoN PGCEi information says "Please note that Qualified Teacher Status in England and Wales is conferred by the General Teaching Council of the relevant country and not by Universities. This PGCE(I) does not therefore offer a licence to teach in the UK."
- General Nottingham University PGCEi information available at www.nottingham.ac.uk/Education/Prospective/TeacherTraining/PGCEInternational.aspx and maybe www.nottingham.ac.uk/education, but no Dubai specific website found.
- See also the Sunderland Magrudy's PGCE, a similar qualification available in Dubai.
