Azteca would've been one, but (like UCN) WES is not evaluating them right now. Swiss Management Center would've been an option (although a very murky one) but WES has them blocked, too, and probably because they derive their "accreditation" entirely through their UCN partnership.Do we know if they get a positive evaluation from any other canadian evaluating agencies? Like IQAS?
There is Apollos here in the U.S. at about $17K, but as the whole NA/RA thing is still winding down (and will for a while), there may be hassles from Canada over it being classified as NA.
Then again there a risk of getting a negative assessment after the completion of the program cuz a lot could change in 2 years.
Haven't heard on IQAS.
You make an excellent point about the risk of changes over time. It wasn't long ago that UCN, Azteca and SMC were all being evaluated. Now, all blocked by WES.
