In the DDA Code of Practice under the section "When does a responsible
body have responsibility for provision it does not make directly?"

There is the example: 

 

"A university has a partnership arrangement with a college overseas. The
university awards the qualification, but does not provide the teaching
or any other services; the overseas college provides these. The
university is not responsible for any treatment that the student
receives from college staff because it is not made by or on behalf of
the university"

 

Hope that helps

	I have a query about disability legislation:
	We have overseas partners delivering our courses to foreign
nationals in their own countries (outside the EU). They are DMU
students, so does UK disability legislation apply to them?
	Also, is the position different if the courses are being
delivered in the EU, to EU students?
	Any tips gratefully received!
	Thanks
