WES Canada recognizes ENEB/Isabel

[JPN]

Based on this, it appears that these graduates convinced Universidad Isabel I to send the documents directly to WES Canada? Which I don't think I've seen a forum member successfully do prior.

Neh. Isabel will not send transcripts for their outside propios under any circumstance. They don't keep full transcript records themselves, and it would require a whole different huge operation to keep track of and send them out considering how many programs they oversee.

What's most likely is that WES Canada just accepted their ENEB transcripts.

That isn't what was asked by WES, but rather the titulo itself or the letter of award needed to be sent by the Universidad. I am sure ENEB can send the transcript directly (do you think they typically only send paper transcripts to WES?). Without having done the evaluation myself, I can't really speak for the process. It could also be that this is a relatively new requirement imposed.

The third badge that I listed was issued in November 2022, so I think you may be right though.

As an aside, WES USA does recognize the ENEB-Isabel degree as equivalent to a U.S. Masters, but unaccredited. That may or may not have changed since we saw an evaluation from them seemingly 2 years ago.

WES Canada and WES USA are the same company working in two different countries. Whether they have any policy differences I'm not aware of, but it's possible, and that would suck for U.S. ENEB degree holders. If I were any of them, I'd petition WES USA over that. May not get anywhere because WES USA is not a very receptive or understanding place... at all... but it's worth a shot.

They are functionally different evaluation units. WES US evaluates for equivalency to US degrees. WES Canada evaluates for equivalency to Canadian degrees. There are absolutely policy differences between the two and even though they're the same companies, it requires them to hold 2 separate sets of comparative expertise.

It is likely easier to say in hindsight, but accreditation works differently in Canada, relative to the US where regional accreditation commissions are the norm. The exact underlying differences, I don't know. I also imagine petitioning WES USA over it is more likely to just kill the equivalency for WES Canada and ruin it for everyone.
