There are three established examples we can highlight that exemplify the delivery of distance education. The first example is the Open Learning Centers found in Egypt . According to the 1989 approval of The Supreme Council of Egyptian Universities to provide open learning in universities interested in offering that mode of education, four universities (Cairo, Alexandria, Assiut, and Ain-Shams) may award degrees at undergraduate and postgraduate levels through distance education programs in a variety of disciplines (Egyptian Universities Network, 2003). The second example is the Distance Education Center of Juba University found in Sudan , with a branch in Jordan . Upon the issuance of the 1998 decree of the vice chancellor of Juba University for the academic year 1999-2000, the center is permitted to offer four years of distance courses arranged in collaboration with the university colleges of social studies and education, leading to Bachelor's level degrees, in addition to two years of distance courses leading to Master' level degrees ( Majdalawi Educational Institute, 2000 ). The third example is the Open Learning Centers found in Syria , which utilize distance education modes of teaching. Established in 2001, Open Learning Centers are permitted to award Bachelor's level degrees with majors in English translation from Al-Baath University , in information and translation from Damascus University , and in law studies from Aleppo University (Open Learning Center of Al-Baath University, 2002). <ref>Mohamed, A.
