College, the world's first online school for total
quality management, yesterday signed an MOU with
Kuwait's Basic Education College, the first between
e-TQM and an external Arab government body.
The deal with the Kuwaiti institution, signed
on the sidelines of the ongoing conference on
"Excellence in Education", calls for
the implementation of e-TQM College's special
quality educational model based on growth, development
and constant evaluation that will make a major
contribution towards achieving Kuwait College's

Young people in Kuwait constitute
both the highest concentration of Internet users
(estimated to be approximately 63% of all Internet
users in Kuwait)and the largest sector of Kuwaiti
society. Moreover, as argued in this article,
young people's Internet practices are likely to
stimulate the most significant changes in Kuwaiti
society. This article scrutinizes a handful of
descriptions by young Kuwaiti of the importance
and implication of the Internet in their lives.
In 1997, 1998, and 2001, three independent surveys
conducted at Kuwait University found that nearly
three-quarters of the students surveyed were active
Internet users (S. Abbas, 1997; H. Abbas, 2001;
Mazid & Ismael, 1998). In Kuwait, 57% of the
population is under the age of 25. Young people
in Kuwait constitute both the highest concentration
of Internet users (estimated to be approximately
63% of all Internet users in Kuwait (H. Abbas
2001)), and the largest sector of Kuwaiti society.
Moreover, for reasons explored below, young people’s
Internet practices are likely to stimulate the
most significant changes in Kuwaiti society over
time.
