  ## History
  
  It was established in Mexico City in 1973 during Luis Echeverría government to help cover the demand of high schools that offered a public service to workers and students therefore 20 campuses were opened in Mexico City and also a program (sistema abierto/ open education) for workers who could not attend school normally helping them to get a higher school diploma by taking exams after they studied text books at home or at work.
