2) I'm aware of the recognition of this program in Germany and Spain. In a previous post (unfortunately, I didn't note the post number), one user mentioned the discrepancy in credits – 72 credits in ENEB's is 60 in Germany. Should I opt for the MBA + Master option to receive a certificate with 60 credits in the end? I believe there might be some misunderstanding on my part here.
3) Would you still recommend this program in 2024? Or are there better alternatives within this price range? Which program would you recommend in terms of topics? I find all the programs interesting, but I'm unsure about the specific subjects included. I’m not sure if I want to study that long.
1) An Ambassador's code is usually the most cost-effective, it is normally cheaper than GroupOn. If you are ordering physical diplomas, apostille, or the exam option, just register to the main degree first then wait until they Email you with a sale.
2) From my understanding based on a previous poster in here, Germany will just plain not accept the degree regardless of credits, but the difference is upon whether or not this acceptance is for WORK purposes or SCHOOL purposes (I don't speak German so can't google this for you). In Sweden, ENEB (and any European education) is accepted for work purposes - no degree/diploma evaluations should or need to be used on it - but ENEB (and all titulo propio) is not counted as college level credit in Sweden, so it isn't accepted for school purposes. Seemingly regardless of the amount of credits.
3) I would look into internationally recognized certificates or tests that have an accrediting body. There may be some of these in Germany that will be valued more by employers than a foreign school certificate. As an example, the first two results I get for any kind of business certificate on Google are "Certified Business Analysis Professional (CBAP) Certification" and "Certified Software Business Analyst (CSBA)". You would then have to google and see if these certifications are actually worth anything in Germany. I found several in the price range of $100 to $2,025. For that price, a single ENEB diploma gotten on an ambassador's code is slightly cheaper and might end up being the same worth.
I would get something unique, that is not the main point of your current degree or is not something commonly offered in Germany, but which is still wanted in job ads. I got the Hotel Management one in part because it's really rare for a school to even offer that subject, and I saw that in job ads that some accept a Hotel Management degree in lieu of hotel management work experience. I currently work at a hotel so it fits in with my work experience and doesn't seem odd. In contrast I decided to not take the HR course because I realized those jobs basically always require 3+ years of experience with or without a degree, I have never had a way up the ladder into HR at any workplace I've been at, and it would look odder on my CV.
