Abet Open University

Our Abet Open University began his operations in Brazil in 1997, under the name of JCMelo Open University. During those 5 years, we have had more than 15,000 students from all  countries, in our two high level courses CIO Chief Information Officer and IME Internet Marketing Engineering.

In June 2001 we transferred some of our operations to the United States, beginning our international operations with the new name Abet Open University and including the new course "MBA program" in English, Portuguese and Spanish, including the Chief Information Officer CIO and Enterprise Resources Planning ERP and Customer Relationship Management CRM matters.

But really the begin of our Open University it is much older, because our old holding company JCMelo Consultoria Técnica during more than 10 years - 1967 up to 1976 - trained more than 1,500 college graduated engineers of the biggest Brazilian companies (Furnas, Chesf, Petrobrás, Embratel, Cemig, Usiminas, and many others) doing  special courses on enterprise and process control systems with computers, in reality the first courses on these  matters in Brazil.

Also our old holding company JCMelo Consultoria Técnica designed more than 1,000 Information Systems during 27 years, in Brazil and foreign, and during this period started the first computer factory in South America.

Therefore we are sure that our Chief Information Officer CIO Certification CCIO is certified by our past, as in other Universities:

• More than 1,500 college graduated engineers trained by the same holding during 10 years in Brazil,
