At UMECIT, we are proud to comply with the quality requirements and standards established by Panamanian legislation on higher education. Law 52 of 2015 constitutes the fundamental regulatory framework for the accreditation and reaccreditation of educational programs, careers and processes. This framework is complemented by what is established in Resolution 723 AL of March 21, 2022, which approved the sole text of Decree 539 of August 30, 2018, content that regulates its provisions.<\/p>
