Instituto Expansion

[Avidreader]

This might be very useful information particularly for Mexican citizens, although technically foreigners can qualify as long as they have a passport and a CURP number.
Instituto Expansión (also known as Universidad Expansión has a sort of RVOE number equivalent for highschools with this text that I verified on the SEP database to be legit:
Instituto Expansión SC
Es una universidad avalada por la Secretaría de Educación Pública con Clave de Centro de Trabajo: 21MSU0077Q

While anyone can directly sign up at the Ceneval HQ to take first the EGEL plus written exam and later on the oral exam to get their degree, there is really not a lot of reliable study guides online about the exam topics. While you can retake both tests as many times as you want, the huge advantage of the Acuerdo 286 graduation pathway is to get a college degree in just 18 months from start to finish.
So I was quite curious about this school because they offer everything online such as self paced courses with the most important study materials. You first do an initial 40 question placement test to see how much material you already know and depending on that the online course can be either 3 or 6 months long.
There are two payment modes for their preparation course where they charge around 1700 mxn a month (around 100 USD) for just the prerecorded 5 minute long short videos for easier retention. Then they have a 2800 mxn (around 170 usd) a month option with tutors practicing mock versions of the oral exam online and the school guarantee everyone that selects this option will pass both exams on the first try.
It seems like they have a preference for accepting applicants that already have prior job experience, but theoretically if you already read the Ceneval suggested reading bibliography beforehand, you should do well enough in the placement test to get accepted and maybe only need the 3 month prep option.
They offer this service for the unregulated degrees such as Business Administratio, Marketing, Communications, Political Science, Education, International Relations.

Curiously they also offer for the regulated degrees that the Ceneval demands at least 50% of the degree to be learned in an accredited mexican university such as Law, Accounting, Industrial Engineering, Computer Engineering.
A quick check of the Law section and they don't mention anything about the prior 50% minimum requirement, only that they have RVOE numbers for their Law degree:
Instituto Expansión SC
Rvoes: 

SEP-SES/21/114/2493/2018

SEP-SES/21/114/2494/2018

SEP-SES/21/114/2495/2018

SEP-SES/21/114/2496/2018

SEP-SES/21/114/2497/2018

There are more and more people getting their Business and Computer Science bachelors with this challenge exam modality. WES apparently does accept these degrees as equivalent to 4 year degrees but after a lot of pestering when it comes to students that get the degrees directly from the Ceneval. They seem to be valid for Canadian work visas. So, if a student wants to use this option to graduate a degree in just a few months online, this school might be an option if their Spanish skills are C1 level.
The ceneval exams are the biggest expense, the written costs 2500 mxn (150 usd) and the oral exam a whopping 18500 mxn (1100 usd).

In your degree it appears "Acuerdo 286" in place of the university name. So makes it very clear how you got your degree. If that is ok and your Spanish is top, it is a relative quick option if you have the experience. Still a normal university seems a better choice to learn about the subject and just a bit more expensive.
My question is how you make it to have WES recognize the degree because the "Secretaria de Educacion" (Department of Education) will not fulfill the paperwork... so do you know the process?
Anyway, for people that is Mexican or live there it is a great find.

I would have to get a degree myself as a guinea pig and give it a go. There is a post on reddit titled "Getting an ECA from work experience (Mexican Acuerdo 286). Seems like the person had to pester the right person in the SEP to send WES a sealed letter explaining the Acuerdo 286 program and they approved it as equivalent to a 4 year bachelors degree despite not having any course transcripts.
