"This doctorate is an experience that marks a before and after in my professional and personal life. Doubt, discrimination, and unemployment led me to this goal, and it has allowed me to contribute new knowledge for the transformation and change in the education quality of my country." Dr. A. Ruelas

"This doctorate is another accomplished goal in my life. It was not a comfortable journey, but I was able to face and overcome challenges and finish it. In Education Management, we need to create networks of collaboration between institutions, doctors, teachers, and students to improve education." Dr. U. Olivares

"This doctorate is the most enjoyable challenge I have had because it allowed me great experiences: travel to conferences, publish my texts, and do research with experts. I am the same person, but my commitment to my students, my colleagues, and my country have grown." Dr. F. Sotelo
