The British University in Dubai (BUiD) has signed an MoU with the Digital School. The MoU was signed at BUiD’s campus by Professor Abdullah Alshamsi, BUiD‘s Vice Chancellor, and Dr. Walid Al Ali, Secretary General of the Digital School. 
By leveraging the existing relationships between BUiD, the University of Nicosia, and the Dubai Blockchain Centre, the Digital School will gain reliable access to a diverse range of blockchain solutions. 
The collective expertise of the parties involved will enable the development of sophisticated digital authentication and signature solutions for certificates. Moreover, the MoU includes the creation of a roadmap for certifying microcredentials and the establishment of robust digital portfolios for both students and teachers. This innovative certification approach will ensure interoperability and international verifiability, marking the beginning of a new era in educational excellence. 
The two institutions aim to disseminate knowledge through joint efforts and enhanced cooperation in order to implement the Digital School’s initiatives in spreading education and empowering students towards a brighter future. 
BUiD is one of the leading not-for-profit research-based universities in the UAE, facilitating world-class education, training, and research.

BUiD will be contributing to these initiatives by providing the expertise and training programmes supporting the initiatives’ aim to educate one million students, especially those living in refugee camps, war zones, and disadvantaged communities around the world from 2021 to 2026.
