Upgrade Your Skills with Bildungsurlaub and Learn with Us!
Did you know you’re entitled to up to five paid days off work each year for educational or professional development? With Bildungsurlaub (Paid Educational Leave) you can use that time to invest in yourself - and learning a new language is one of the most rewarding ways to do it. In some federal states, you can even combine two years into a full 10 days away from work, giving you even more time to focus on your development.
Our courses are officially recognised under the Bildungsurlaub Act (except in Bavaria and Saxony), so you can book with confidence. Because rules vary between states, we always recommend checking with your employer first - but wherever you’re based, we’ll help guide you through the process and make it easy.
Below you’ll find our fully accredited courses across participating states. If you’re ready to take advantage of your paid educational leave and study with us, simply fill in the form below, and we’ll get you started.
All accreditations are regularly renewed. In the federal state of Saxony, educational leave is possible from 2027.
