B@UNAM

The Directorate of Distance High School (DBD) is part of the Coordination of Open and Distance Education of the National Autonomous University of Mexico. As part of its activities, in 2007 the DBD developed and put into operation High School Distance Program B@UNAM, with the fundamental purpose that Mexicans and other Spanish speakers who live outside of Mexico can pursue their middle studies in their language.

B@UNAM is a quality, complete, updated high school and meets all the social functions of this level (preparation for life, for work and for higher education), taking full advantage of the online mode to promote student’s skills and meaningful learning, contextualized and relevant to today’s world.

B@UNAM’s team is comprised of academic and operational coordinators, subject responsible, mentors and advisors, content designers, instructional and multimedia designers, technologists and administrative staff.

SUAyED

The Open and Education University Distance System UNAM is intended to extend the upper secondary and higher education to large segments of the population, through theoretical and practical methods of transmission and evaluation of knowledge and create learning groups working within or outside the university campi and promote the integration of information technology and communication educational processes.

Currently the SUAyED offers high school and bachelor programs, postgraduate and continuing education, both in the form open and distance learning in schools and colleges located on the campus of University City and the metropolitan area of Mexico City and other states of the Mexican Republic.

REDEC

Continuing education has acquired different nuances; among them, it has been assumed as a complementary activity to university work, or as a source of extraordinary resources exclusively. From these core ideas articulated to the “Guidelines for the development of an academic proposal for the period 2007-2011”, the CUAED considers it necessary to give new impetus to the Continuous Education Network UNAM (REDEC).
