New DBA on Upgrad by ESGCI

[smartdegree]

...what you should be looking at is Ministère de l'enseignement supérieur https://www.enseignementsup-recherche.gouv.fr/fr (Ministry of Higher Education)
The French education Ministry is split into two main entities.

Thanks Harry for that link.  ESGCI appears several times on the website you shared:

1) List of recognized grandes ecoles

(See pages 273 and 277)

2) Statement from the Ministère de l'enseignement supérieur

(See page 11 for the recognition statement)

Moreover, Universitat Barcelona, arguably the #1 university in Spain, lists ESGCI in its partner university evaluation (see page 245):

I believe this info + the WES Canada evaluations are sufficient to prove that ESGCI (the institution) is legit.  Now whether the DBA is considered equivalent in the US/Canada is a separate question, as even UK DBAs are recognized by WES as equivalent to masters.

Misleading what you wrote about UB of Spain. The document show that in 2015 and only in that year a group of 5 person participated in an exchange. As I understand people moved to the UB from there. And while the usual is each year students move both sides go from one university to the other, in this occasion was only once and only in one direction. I do not know what happened that made it stop. The info only affects the faculty of economics and business, we aware of that.

Fantastic insight, thank you for pointing out that I am misleading.  I hope my WES links aren't misleading either?  Or do you think WES is a misleading organization as well?  People in this forum should replace WES since they can recognize institutions better than WES.  That is so awesome Mr. Kab and Mr Harry101 - you are the best.

I guess we can just ask US and Canadian employers to post here and ask Mr. Kab and Mr Harry what they think of foreign degrees - no need for credential evaluators like WES, right?. Mr. Kab and Mr. Harry will do it for free too and point out that others are misleading. Thanks so much.
