Moreover, such efort is a common task performed by humans who collaborate for long periods of time participating in frequent meetings in order to achieve agreement. New educational approaches are heading to adaptive, fexible, ubiquitous, asynchronous, collaborative, hyper-mediated, and personalized strategies based on modern Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). We propose an approach for tailoring academic programs to provide a practical and automated method to discover and organize milestones of knowledge through the use of Complex Networks Analysis (CNA) techniques. Based on indicators from CNA, the act of tailoring an academic program acquires meaning, structure and even body elements. INTRODUCTION As most people would agree, there is a continuous digital revolution due to advances in computational capabilities, effective communication protocols, new understanding on data managing/mining/sharing as well as distributed programming approaches; which have allowed achieving standardize new ways to carry out common computer tasks, all over the world. As a consequence, societies nowadays have specific demands on digital services, so significant amounts of knowledge elements have been digitalized.
