WES Canada recognizes ENEB/Isabel

[eLearner]

@JPN Some interesting things there. WES--according to ENEB--won't even look at the Isabel diploma, interesting. There was an ENEB evaluation from WES shown here once where Isabel was the only entity mentioned on the evaluation. I asked the student if they had only submitted their Isabel diploma but they never answered (that person turned out later to be a constant disruption, so in hindsight I'm not sure how credible his/her information was in the first place).

The other thing that sticks out is that ENEB is charging for the electronic transcripts to be sent. I know that's nothing unusual with schools anymore, but I just remember a time when it was.

has anyone messaged them on linkedin and asked how they proceeded with the WES evaluation? If not, then I will do so next week

WES Canada is independent of WES US, and WES is actually considered one of the more reasonable evaluators in Canada (with BCIT ICES considered the harshest). I noticed this when I was considering UK masters options and visiting immigration forums to see the results of other accreditation. It seems immigration consultants overwhelmingly recommend WES, partly because they're faster than others.

For example, WES considers Level 7 diplomas in the UK to be equivalent to a post-graduate diploma, whereas IQAS refuse to evaluate Level 7s.

Here are some more WES Canada evaluations:

So yes, ENEB (at least the Spanish program) is likely equivalent to a Master's degree in Canada.

I did not notice this before, but WES has wording on the awarding of degrees by a university on behalf of a affiliated centre (of which ENEB is one).

If you have a Título de Máster completed at a centro adscrito but awarded by a university, WES requires an official confirmation of award letter or título sent directly by the awarding university.

Do not send original documents. WES does not require any original documents to process a credential evaluation report. Documents that you submit for evaluation will not be returned and will be destroyed by WES at its sole discretion.

Based on this, it appears that these graduates convinced Universidad Isabel I to send the documents directly to WES Canada? Which I don't think I've seen a forum member successfully do prior.

I was thinking of going for the Masters in Big Data. Does anyone know if this has masters accreditation in the United Kingdom?

Has anyone on DF done a WES Canada evaluation with ENEB?

I was thinking about doing it when I graduate (diploma comes in about 2 months) for the Canadian evaluation agencies, but like you, I mostly took the program for professional development and can think of better things to spend $100 USD on. An evaluation would likely not be particularly useful for myself, it would be purely for morbid curiosity.


If someone wants to sign up using my ambassador link, I am fine kicking back the $50 USD commission that I'd get for any evaluations down the road. I don't have a profit motivation for doing that, it might just help offset the cost of future data points.

It is very transparent of you to return the $50us in order to provide more objectivity. I used my own pocket funds to provide information useful to others. $50us is a lot of money for students so I understand why much of the noise on ENEB. Another poster here, who has not received any financial benefits from ENEB plan to do a Canadaian WES evaluation. I hope it comes back positive.

This might sound like a silly question as I suppose it literally depends where you want to work…

But in general terms, what is the best evaluation service that is likely to have the highest international standing? For example, I know my degrees in the UK are accredited pretty much anywhere in the world; is there any accreditation service out there that can offer something similar for ENEB?

Each country has their own evaluation policies. Your UK degrees are absolutely not accredited in the US. You'd still need to get it evaluated by a service like WES or whatever. In Germany, you'd use the official government service Anabin when necessary.

Why am I trying to obfuscate the issue with ENEB to muddy the waters? For me saying that degrees from the UK are absolutely not accredited in the USA is misleading. The person with the ENEB will need to get it evaluated in the UK. A person with an Oxford/Cambridge degree will need to also get it evaluated in the US if necessary. But to say Oxford/Cambridge is absolutely not accredited in the USA is misleading by me.

For full disclosure, I received no financial compensation from ENEB

Accepted is not the same as accredited. An Oxford degree is accredited in the UK. It is (usually) accepted in the US. Huge difference. UCT (University of Cape Town) is accredited in South Africa and should be accepted in the US.
