ENEB Master Thread

[cacoleman1983]

A validation degree from any obscure school is only worth it if it results in an official degree instead of a "propio" degree.  If not, I would just be happy with Validential's regionally accredited Master's equivalent evaluation and/or IEE's regionally accredited graduate certificate evaluation.

IEAD is certified by UDIMA (Distance University of Madrid) which means that this will be another propio.    If UDIMA is listed on the IEAD diploma and if UDIMA or IDEA issues their own transcript, it may be possible to have an evaluator review it through UDIMA as an official degree but I doubt that will be the case as it would be an identical evaluation to Universidad Isabel I.

I don't agree, because worth is a variable in this context and it has levels to it. For some, an RA graduate certificate equivalence is worth it. For others, an RA Bachelor's equivalence is worth it. For others still, a U.S. non-accredited Master's equivalence is worth it. Sure, an RA Master's equivalent is the most ideal, but it's not the only outcome that makes it worth it. And savvy student have squeezed value out of all of those outcomes.

I overgeneralized my first sentence which was not my intention.   Propio degrees are legitimate and worth it for the intent in which they are used as well as for life-long learning. The recognition of them while limited and ambiguous makes them still a great option to consider. My UCN Ph.D. degree is a validation of an Azteca propio degree in an inter-university program.  ENEB's Master's programs are non-accredited degrees alone but are validated by Universidad Isabel I as Master Titulo Propios.   In context,  I meant that if you were to pay for another degree for validation,  make sure it has more recognition than what you already have.   In the above cases,  having their partner schools was beneficial.  I don't see a worthwhile benefit for the validation of ENEB with IEAD as it will be a propio on top of another propio which would not improve the status of a foreign credential evaluation.
