Spanish term

Máster de Formación Permanente

Spanish to English Other Education / Pedagogy Postgraduate Studies
'Máster de Formación Permanente' is a term used by universities in Spain to describe 'título propio' degrees that are granted solely under the authority of the university and thus lacking government oversight. These are considered fully legitimate degrees, but they are a separate tier of degree, which do not permit holders access to government employment nor doctoral studies.

The term is used as part of the official degree title on a diploma and on CVs. An example, you might see a degree title like this: "Máster de Formación Permanente en en Administración de Negocios".

Would it be appropriate to translate this literally as "Master's in Permanent Training"? Or would a less literal "Master's in Continuing Education" be more appropriate?

@Precision1878 The usual title in English available at Spanish Universities is:
Permanent training master's degree.
Just one example:

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thank you for the translation and the resources. I had originally thought that this was only the norm for Spain, but it was interesting to see from your linked resources that this style of degree also exists in other countries, such as Germany and Austria. Thanks again for the clarification!"
