Yes, master's degrees from the UK and Europe are generally recognized worldwide for licensing purposes. These degrees are awarded by accredited institutions and are typically included in international directories.

However, recognition depends on the country and specific profession. Many countries may require additional steps, such as credential evaluations or licensing exams, to confirm your degree meets local standards.

If you plan to work in a specific country or regulated profession, you may need to meet extra requirements set by local licensing boards. For personalized guidance, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
