New DBA on Upgrad by ESGCI - OtterDen - 05-28-2023
The course is 100% online and takes 36 months to complete. The course costs around USD 10,000.
According to the Upgrad webpage, ESGCI is an accredited leader in business education, offering a fully online DBA program that combines affordability, quality and support. The DBA is the terminal degree in the field of business administration and allows those who complete the program to use the title of “Dr.”. ESGCI is accredited by French National Accreditation, French Ministry of Higher Education, Research and Innovation, and Qualiopi French State certification which ensures high-quality training and skills development.
I am not sure what a terminal degree mentioned on the Upgrad webpage is though. And I've never heard of the school Ecole de Commerce International (ESGCI) before.

This looks like a decent deal. The one thing I am curious about though is what good Wharton's certification adds to it for another $2k.

LOL, I looked at them again. The pricing for the program varies significantly, it's $20K USD direct from Upgrad, if you go from a partner, it's 800K INR/10K USD here: Doctorate of Business Administration | ESGCI (talentedge.com)

Sorry for the late replay. But why am i not surprised i can not find it in the French Ministries website under recognised/registered Educational Institutions;
1.https://data.enseignementsup-recherche.gouv.fr/explore/dataset/fr-esr-principaux-etablissements-enseignement-superieur/table/
2.https://www.enseignementsup-recherche.gouv.fr/fr/etablissements-dispensant-des-formations-superieures-initiales-diplomantes-conferant-le-grade-de-46529
If you need to back track this information. I welcome anyone. My starting point was https://www.enic-naric.net/page-France and > Recognised Higher Education Institutions in France.
I seem to spot a pattern when it comes to Upgrad. This is not the first time.

Yeah, we have a senior member on the sister board taking this program for at a discount than what I mentioned: https://www.degreeinfo.com/index.php?threads/luxury-executive-dba.62148/#post-585658
RE: New DBA on Upgrad by ESGCI - Harry101 - 06-27-2023
Thank you for the heads up @bjcheung77. From the looks as Johann expressed, he was on point.
I also went to check with the German national repository Anabin: https://anabin.kmk.org/no_cache/filter/institutionen.html ..and i can not find a hit for ESG or ESGCI, which is usually a bad sign if they do not even have it listed.
I gave another go with the ESG domain for recognised Business schools;
https://www.cefdg.fr/fr/ecoles-et-formations-visees
And on the ministries website all the institutions that award Phd's;
https://www.enseignementsup-recherche.gouv.fr/fr/etablissements-d-enseignement-superieur-accredites-delivrer-le-doctorat-46523
All of the websites are official websites used by the Government/State in France from the ENIC-NARIC body.
If i missed something i apologize.

I started to study the degree, and to respond to the certification below are 2 government websites where there is a government certification for the institution- Ecole supérieure de gestion et de commerce international - Groupe Studialis - 0754725D :

RE: New DBA on Upgrad by ESGCI - Harry101 - 07-10-2023
@Eran
The problem is that the second link you posted deals with ;
- - "APPLICATION FOR CONSULTATION AND MAPPING OF ESTABLISHMENTS IN THE FRENCH EDUCATION SYSTEM" for an Academy based of Lyon calling itself <<Lycée professionnel Alexandre Bérard - - Lycée des métiers de l'énergie et de l'habitat or translated
<< Alexandre Bérard Vocational High School - High school for energy and housing professions >> https://alexandre-berard.ent.auvergnerhonealpes.fr/
- Which looks fine and everything in order. But the problem is it is not related to ESG or ESGCI.
As i express in my past post ( and since my posts i got an email about these from the ENIC representative) ESG/ESGCI need to be listed in the two links i provided;
1. https://www.cefdg.fr/fr/ecoles-et-formations-visees
2. https://data.enseignementsup-recherche.gouv.fr/explore/dataset/fr-esr-principaux-etablissements-enseignement-superieur/table/
and then find if they are listed by the Government for Doctorates on this link:
https://www.enseignementsup-recherche.gouv.fr/fr/etablissements-dispensant-des-formations-superieures-initiales-diplomantes-conferant-le-grade-de-46529
But since we are dealing here with DBA-s they probably are not regulated in the first place so no oversight is needed from the Government. But the qualification verification remains questionable on the labor market.
