Throughout university history, Continuous Training and Extension, for its operation and to distinguish itself from undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate activities, was nominalized in different ways in order to be recognized as such: among them we can find the diplomas, courses and diplomas, among others.

Universidad de Mendoza, with 60 years of experience, worked on this concept from different areas, generating training that would be useful at the regional level to optimize the level of our Cuyo professionals in the search for original and productive offer.

There were no university diplomas endorsed by the National Directorate of University Management and Supervision (DNGyFU) in the Nuevo Cuyo Region.

The Diploma in Law and Municipal Management of the FCJS of the Universidad de Mendoza It has the national certification granted by the Ministry (DNGyFU), which gives the offer a different status since it opens the field to the student not only nationally but also internationally, to validate the knowledge acquired.

The DNGyFU validity is granted to those courses or trainings that have an important content and that constitute an offer of extension 'useful, original and necessary' for the region.

The offer will thus integrate the list of DNGyFU trainings visible at the national and international level, being documentation suitable for apostille, qualify and present outside the Argentine territory, at the level of certification of studies.
