English term or phrase: OVERSEAS
Buenos días a todos:

Estoy traduciendo un certificado inglés y en el dorso figura el siguiente párrafo:

1975-1987 (and UODLE Overseas 1988-1997)
Attainment at Ordinary Level is indicated by one of five grades A, B, C, D or E, of which grade A is the highest and grade E the lowest. Candidates awarded grade A, B, or C have reached the standard of the former subject pass at Ordinary Level. Grade D and E indicate a lower level of attainment but of sufficient standard to be recorded on certificates.

UODLE es University of Oxford Delegacy of Local Examinations, pero lo de "overseas" me tiene un poco descolocada.

¿¿Alguien tiene idea de a qué se refiere??

Millones de gracias.
Un saludo.

Explanation:
Quizás se podrían hacer estas dos lecturas:

1. podría referirse a que la persona trabajó para el UODLE a la vez que vivía en el extranjero, o bien
2. que se encargaba de dar las notas según el sistema británico a escuelas que siguen el plan de estudios británico en el extranjero.
