ENEB Master Thread

[wolfch]

I need your help. I am currently enrolled in the Double Master Program at ENEB (the basic with only digital diploma). I have seen on https://eneb.com/wp-content/uploads/2023...pl-COM.pdf that their is the possibility to get the physical diplomas.

What is the benefit of doing the "Global MBA Studies" next go getting a MBA and 2 Masters? What is the difference between "1 MBA + Master’s (or Double Master’s) diploma issued by the University Isabel I" with the "Double Master Program" and the "1 Global MBA diploma issued by the University Isabel I" you get with the "Global MBA Studies"?

Is their a possibility to make an upgrade to the "Global MBA Studies" from my Double Master Program?

Why is their an option to buy a digital copy for 210 Euro (for the Double Master Program) when a digital copy is already included free of charge?

It appears that the Global MBA is no longer being honored by Isabel I, you get the non-accredited (no ECTS transfer credits) certificate from ENEB for free, if you want the Isabel I certificate with the 60 ECTS you have to pay. Note: Once the formal certificate is issued you can't 'transfer' those credits as they have been used by the university to issue a Masters diploma.

Dealing with ENEB has been very confusing and frustrating. They say UI1 no longer issues a "Global MBA" for a triple masters but now issues three separate diplomas, but in the same breath they also say that "sometimes" UI1 will issue a single Diploma for the three. What this is called on the diploma (if you happen to get one) is anyone's guess. So if you want a single diploma, or even if you perhaps preferred three separate diplomas, seems to be completely up to chance.

Also, how they present the maximum of 90 ECTS across three separate diplomas is unknown, given that each programme, if done in isolation, would have been 60 ECTS. 

Hopefully UI1 does end up issuing a single certificate similar to a Global MBA because the three programmes that I am doing is what comprises UI1's own Global MBA programme (MBA + Big Data and Business Intelligence + Project Management). 

Here are some responses that I received from ENEB on the Global MBA. 

Question:

1. What is the process for registering for and earning the UI1 Global MBA? The attached pricing document for the Hague Apostilled diploma makes reference to the Global MBA being awarded to students with three Master's Degrees.
   
2. How many ECTS credits and how many credit hours does UI1 grant for the Global MBA program?
   
3. Does the Global MBA certificate replace the three separate Masters certificates that UI1 would otherwise have issued?
   

Response:

"Please note that the Isabel does no longer issue one single certificate for a triple master, but three separate certificates. Also, the student who enrolls and completes the triple master, will be receiving a total of 90 ECTS from the Universidad Isabel I. Take into account that there are common subjects that will only be studied once. 

We would like to inform you that currently, the diplomas are issued separately. However, sometimes the UI1 issue the diplomas together."

Hi all,

I 'started' my MBA + Masters In Big Data in Nov 22. Will I still get Isabel accreditation for no extra charge?

I have read the thread (!), but it isn't clear.

no,you need to pay that.Isable diploma is not free.If you want to pay this,please send a email to ENEB.

Thank you for the answer.

It does seem like that was promised to me as part of the purchase, but I will deal with that with Groupon privately.

One other thing - the ESEB blurb implies if I pay for the agile exam I still have to do the papers to qualify for an Isabel diploma. Is that the case?

Dear All, could you please help us better understand the whole issue and delay with the diploma issuance? How long have you been waiting for? What is the response of Eneb to your complains regarding the delay? What is the date present on the delayed Isabel certificates, the date of completion or the date of issuance? Thank you for help on this!

Took exams on Dec 4th 2023 for 3 courses.

Received ENEB certificates - all 3 on March 13th 2024.

Received ISABEL certificates - 1) April 15 2024, 2) May 14 2024, 3) Not issued yet (it is now June 30 2024).

The dates marked on the certificates are all close to the issue dates, so the two Isabel certificates have different issue dates, and both of those have different issue dates from the 3 ENEB certificates.

I have not sent any complaints. I have read all there is to read on various forums and reviews about ENEB and while many people have complained about long delays, I have never seen anyone who never received their diplomas. Complaining won't make them move faster.

All ENEB addons are entirely separate.
Paying for the exam is completely unrelated to getting the Isabel degree.
Paying for the notarization and apostille is completely unrelated to paying for the exam.
Paying for a time extension is totally separate to the above two things. Etc.

In THEORY:
- Several countries automatically don't recognize a degree which is worth less than a certain amount of ECTS. How much 1 ECTS is worth varies by country (it is worth more credit hours in Germany, less credit hours in Spain), so for example a 60 ECTS diploma will count as less than 60 ECTS in Germany, and then you could be disqualified from a job or schooling simply because your diploma does not actually count as a 1 year diploma. A 90 ECTS diploma would be more helpful in this regard.
- Likewise some employers would look more favorably upon a 90 ECTS diploma just because it is longer schooling in general.
- A few employers or customers would be impressed that you learned a variety of interrelated subjects because it means you're more well-rounded.

In reality, many employers seem to want specific schooling or education 100% directly related to the subject you are interviewing for and if you have a mixed degree they think you have learned each subject to a lesser amount than one single focused degree would have given you. At least in my experience they never look at your transcript to see your classes, they just glance at your degree title and sometimes ask what you learned during it. So in those cases, having separate degrees for each subject is better than a global degree.

Please share the source where you saw this. I haven't seen that explicitly stated myself, but the following is included in their legal notice so it may very well be the case. Others who have actually done exam route would have actual experience though so should be able to confirm.

"The degrees awarded by the University Isabel I are subject to the internal regulations of this educational institution, which may result in differences in their management compared to the degrees conferred by ENEB. Similarly, the University will base the process of awarding academic credits on its own criteria and internal regulations."

ENEB purchased on Groupon is just that, it's the Diploma from ENEB, nothing to do with Isabel... You can email Groupon, they just 'sell' the product and have absolutely no control over anything else (yes, just like us, Ambassadors for ENEB, we have no control over anything at all either). Exams are an extra cost for ENEB, Hague Apostille/Physical Diplomas are an extra cost from Isabel... If you're looking at the "digital versions" of the diplomas, they are free for ENEB, you'll have to see what Isabel says about theirs, that's the main thing you want to find out.

Well, I Emailed ENEB asking about my final Isabel certificate, we'll see what happens. As that's the only one relevant to my job, after it comes I'm gonna print out a copy and hang it up in our hotel reception area just to show off.

I have double citizenship and have different first and last names between the two countries on my two different passports (long story...). I just Emailed ENEB asking if it is possible to put my second full name somewhere on the Isabel verification page so that employers know I have both names. Having two full names is such a pain in the butt whenever I have to prove anything via documents for anything like digital identification, a visa or a job, but pretty much no one can accommodate this request even if it would be simple enough to just put my second name in parenthesis on the work contract or certificate, so I'm not expecting much.

I've been accepted to Norwich University's Masters in Diplomacy (concentration: International Conflict Management), based on my ECE Evaluation (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XDJJUwL...drive_link).

Looks like Norwich is regionally accredited by NECHE. Fantastic! Was the ECE evaluation all you submitted or did you also submit other documents?
