I just found out about this convention but as I understand it, academic qualifications from the US/Canada/UK should automatically be recognized in EU countries if they are official.
In my case this is particularly interesting since Germany's anabin database lists UoPeople as an institution without accreditation. However, the university is accredited in the US and legally, NA and RA are equal. The fact that I can get an apostille on the degree verifies the situation that it is an accredited degree as well.
It seems like anabin's evaluation is not in line with the Lisbon convention which both Germany and the US signed. So, could I use this as a legal ground for not accepting an unsuccessful degree evaluation in Germany? Because that's what it seems like to me
