I've been a silent observer in this forum for quite some time and have recently created this account to share my perspective. With a heavy heart, I must say that ENEB seems to have taken a regrettable path in North America by implementing this 50 question evaluation, which I find disheartening especially as I'm in the midst of pursuing their programs.
In my opinion, as ENEB was growing and shaping itself into a respected institution, it stood at a crossroads. It could have either adopted the 'diploma mill' approach, focusing on high-volume sales, or it could have reduced promotions and aligned its pricing with other European MBAs, thereby distinguishing itself in the marketplace. Regrettably, it appears that they opted for the former, seemingly devaluing their academic rigor in the process. This, to me, gives an impression of an institution that struck gold unexpectedly and may possibly even cease operations in the near future, rather than become a leading educational reference. I find this to be an unfortunate strategic misstep, as they had potential to become a noteworthy contender despite the competition.
Like many others in this forum, I was genuinely enthusiastic about earning an their credential and leveraging it for career advancement. ENEB checked many boxes for me as a potential terminal degree. However, in light of recent developments, I have had to reassess my options. I may need to use the credits earned at ENEB towards another reputable MBA affordable program, such as the University of Applied Sciences in Germany, and reconsider featuring ENEB prominently on my LinkedIn profile and CV.
Despite appreciating the educational gains from ENEB's modules, I must admit that, had I been aware of these developments, I would have thought twice about enrolling. The sense of disappointment, even embarrassment, that I'm currently experiencing regarding this degree is amplified by the fact that my current company sponsored my studies. It's distressing, particularly because I had vouched for the validity of the institution at the time to them.
