Describing Spanish Titulo Propio on CV
I have been wondering how to list a Spanish Titulo Propio on CV similar to this example...
Harvard University
Accredited by the New England Commission of Higher Education
Maybe like this...
Escuela de Negocios Europea de Barcelona (ENEB)
Authorized under Spanish Royal Decree XX/XXXX
I want something accurate and truthful.
Anyone remember which Royal decree?

That is way overthinking it. It would also be weird to mention accreditation and decrees on a resume, but perhaps you're joking. Instead, try it the way the school has said it's okay to do:
Master of Business Administration
European Business School of Barcelona
Or (and this was put in writing by ENEB once as they said it was okay to do since Isabel certifies the degree and keeps a searchable record of it):
Master of Business Administration
Isabel I University
You could also us the Spanish variants of course, but I would personally avoid that if I don't live in a Spanish-speaking nation as you're going to be an easy target for the ignorant which companies are overflowing with when it comes to hiring.

Name of Degree Listed on Diploma, Subject Area, Year of Graduation
Name of University, [optional, institution within the university], Location
Optional: Any accomplishments you deem noteworthy
Optional: Any coursework you want to list, ideally relevant to the job
e.g.
Master of Studies, Sustainability Leadership, 2023
Cambridge University, Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadershp, Cambridge UK
Gates Cambridge Scholarship, 2022
Coursework in Corporate Governance, Organizational Dynamics, and Sustainable Design
Master of Business Administration, 2024
Universidad Isabel I, Escuela de Negocios Europea de Barcelona, Barcelona ES
GPA: 9.2/10
Coursework in Supply Chain Management, International Trade, and Taxation
CV space is precious real estate. I wouldn't waste it listing the exact mechanisms by which ENEB or literally any other institution is accredited, any more than I would list the piece of parchment signed in the 13th century by Henry III that granted Cambridge its accreditation. It's very non-standard and leads to more questions than answers.
(Note, I do not hold either of the degrees listed above, just examples.)

Quite frankly, I'd rather be filtered out by such companies upfront than waste months or years of my life working there only to find out that the company is run by ignorant people.

Hmm, for me, I would say the more compact and concise the better, keep it short and simple... I don't know if all would go this route, some hiring managers like this method, others don't... Take your pick...
RE: Discribing Spanish Titulo Propio on CV - Heartstrings - 09-14-2024
I think you just need to show just like @NatsNerd stated. I would think the place that you're looking to apply would look up the schools you went to if they decide that they are seriously going to hire you. Or they would ask you about them in the interview.

I think that speaks to my point though: you would be filtered out and never get the chance to work there.

Agreed. I'd also avoid things like graduation years (can reveal age or inexperience), and GPAs for foreign schools unless you've converted it to a U.S. GPA. Showing a 10-scale GPA is going to raise some red flags in the U.S.

I used to hire for a living and did it in multiple places, and while I understood these things and didn't reject applications because of them, that wasn't at all the case with many of my colleagues. I don't think people really realize just how bad the judgement is of a lot of people in a position to hire. I'm telling you, there are a lot of people in these positions who don't know much about anything and make decisions based on things that would floor you. The less you give them to question, the better.
