Marshall McLuhan, the Canadian philosopher, scholarly and educator, one of the great visionaries of the current and future information society, minted the term “global village” in the late 60's and early 70's to describe human inter connection at a global scale, generated by electronic communications media. These concepts mandate on us today to break with old paradigms and adapt ourselves to the new needs of the Information Society.Today, we may sell a product in Buenos Aires, purchase it from Miami, and deliver it in Hong Kong or in Beijing.

Today, we may study, from San Pablo, contents that are given in Madrid, in the Spanish language, and accredited by Universities from different continents. Today, we may study English, or Chinese, French or German, from anywhere in the planet.

How do we adapt ourselves to these changes?How do we redefine old paradigms?How to adapt our education to the growing and dynamic needs for development of our regions?How do we beat time?

We generate and we sustain the networking and interaction of , , institutions governmentsbusinesses and international experts, adapting our global expertise to local and regional contexts.

The world has changed.... The world will change....The world will continue to change.

Education has changed.... Education will change....education will go on changing.
