TESTIMONIALS
"In 2017 I participated in the first edition of DiGI, for me it was a new experience since it was the first time I left my country in order to go to study abroad. The teaching team was exceptional, not only for their academic level but also for their human warmth. Each session, during the morning and afternoon, turned out to be intense and at the same time captivating. But the best was yet to come, the final work, multidisciplinary teams had to propose a solution to a topical problem linked to Internet Governance. It was a unique experience."
"The internet has influenced all aspects of human life. Having participated in the Diploma on Internet Governance has helped to expand my knowledge and to have a more global and conscious view of it's use and what it implies, a world that is constantly evolving towards digital transformation. Thank you CETyS for making me part of this beautiful project!"
"My experience in the Diploma Program could not be more satisfactory, with a first class international teaching staff and classes in the surroundings of the beautiful campus of the University of San Andres. The diversity of disciplines of the exhibitors and the plurality of ideas was truly enriching, opening new avenues of thinking about internet governance. Multi-disciplinarity in the composition of students is an added value of networking, allowing to consolidate an entertaining group and at the same time, to expand networks of job opportunities and team building."
"During the last three years I had been working on Internet Governance issues, during which I attended (and sometimes organized) all kinds of events in my country and in the rest of the Latin American region. However, until that moment there were not many academic programs that could certify this experience or offer methodological tools to improve research in this field. That is why participating in the first Diploma in Internet Governance was a very enriching experience for me not only for academic accreditation but also because I was able to expand my knowledge, as well as share experiences and interesting discussions with my colleagues."
