IEAD Máster en Innovación y Emprendimiento - My Experience

[DoctorHAK]

Hi everyone,

few months back, ENEB offered a "convalidation" with IEAD, a sister of ENEB with similar programs but in Spanish, I did explore IEAD offering at the time and decided to apply for one of their master's. In Feb 2025, I applied for the Máster en Innovación y Emprendimiento and paid the discounted offer price at the time (152$).

Program page link: https://iead.es/catalogo-formativo/masters/master-en-innovacion-y-emprendimiento/

Everything worked exactly like ENEB but in Spanish, I received my credentials and logged in to the virtual campus which is an exact replica of ENEB's.

The modules were also an exact replica of ENEB (even the names).

IEAD vs ENEB:


- All modules in IEAD are assessed by a final quiz (that is a quiz for each module, not for the whole master), once you complete and pass the quiz you pass the module.
- No final project option.
- Content is in Spanish, more video links and resources are provided compared to ENEB in some modules.
- Quizzes are very similar to ENEB, if you took any of ENEB's module quizzes, that's it but in Spanish. 10 questions/quiz, 30 min, pass is 5/10.


How did I manage the Spanish content?

- I used the translate option in google chrome browser
- I know little Spanish that helped me navigate things that was not translated properly.
- English captions for videos / also used Gemini AI couple of time to translate and summarize videos.
- I used google to lookup things that I could not understand (not many).

Time from start to finish: 2 and half months, not really rushing. Took my time.


After completion, I got an email to congratulate me and another email a week later with my IEAD certificate (not yet on my downloads area), and in 2 weeks I got my UI1 Degree also by email. In June, IEAD moved to a new downloads area (replica of ENEB's new downloads area) where I found my diploma and transcript and my UI1 diploma. In July I requested the hard copy of my diploma and received it last week.

My opinion: 
- Same as ENEB from all aspects, the quiz assessment for each module made more sense than ENEB's one quiz for all but still it was too easy and completely meaningless. 
- Price wise, seems cheaper slightly from ENEB. 
- UI1 60 ECTS earned, although I am using same ID I used in ENEB, and already got more than the 90 ECTS/year limit. Seems that this is not cross checked at UI1 side.
- If you can understand/manage Spanish content, this might be even easier than ENEB.
- UI1 Degree came in Spanish, so may require translation to English when sent to any FCE.
- I did not send this to any FCE, but I think it will also be assessed like ENEB/UI1.

Thank you

Thanks for the detailed report, DoctorHAK.

You mentioned the end-of-module quizzes. However, did any of your courses require any kind of research or writing at all?

Also, regarding the discounted price, is this only offered to ENEB alumni? Or is there a link that would allow others to access that same deal?

The ease of the tests and the lack of a significant final assignment suggests that the primary goal of the program is not to challenge students to reach their full potential, but to provide a certificate. This places the burden on graduates to demonstrate the value of the degree to future employers or educational institutions, especially when it is merely a “título propio” (legally valid qualification) rather than an official qualification. While the degree may be sufficient for some purposes, it is clearly not designed to provide a deeply transformative academic experience.

One could argue most degrees fall into this category.

[wow]

I would be tempted to do it for $152 as a way to practice my Spanish. For me, doing it in Spanish would be the accomplishment!

Sorry for the late reply,

Non of the courses required any reserach.
The discounted price is offered to anyone, you can just join IEAD mailing list and they will email you any offers they have. I noted that their offers usually coincide with ENEB offers, I guess they have the same marketing teams.

Happy to answer any further questions.

[wow]

I didn't see a mailing list signup on the website so I filled out the inquiry form. They called me twice; I didn't answer because even though I gave them a US number they did not account for the time zones. After each call they sent me the same email offering 90% off, but the link back to the website to order doesn't work. I have responded to the email twice saying I don't need to talk on the phone, I'm convinced, just sell me the course -- but no answers via email.

It may not happen for me, at least not this month. No way will I contact them via WhatsApp, nor do I want to fend off the hard sell in Spanish.
