Learnship signs a strategic partnership for Business German courses with Hueber

In 2023, Learnship signed a strategic partnership with Hueber. Licensed by the prestigious German publishing house, Learnship now provides professionals with brand-new business German language courses based on world-renowned material.

With a track record of success spanning over a century, Hueber is a unique European publisher, offering a comprehensive range of training content in German and 30 other languages. As a major provider for schools, institutions, and business organizations worldwide, Hueber is committed to building an extensive content library that meets the highest quality and innovation standards.

“We were blown away by the quality and relevance of the new Momente series.”

Hueber has always been one of Germany’s best-known publishers because of their history of well-designed courses,” says Robert Szabo, VP of Learning Sciences at Learnship. “We were blown away by the quality and relevance of the new Momente series published in 2020. The course offers more support on phonology and fundamentals than ever, which makes it all the more efficient, especially for non-European learners.”

Learnship joins a short list of exclusive partners that includes Macmillan Education, Hachette, and Alma Edizioni, among others.

Hueber’s teams are passionate about finding new and innovative ways to teach languages,” explains Gary McAllen, Key Account Manager at Hueber. “The COVID pandemic has accelerated our digital transformation. On discovering the Learnship virtual environment and the dedication of their trainers, we instantly understood we were on the same page, and saw a unique opportunity to transpose our content into the dematerialized world. We are looking forward to developing our partnership with Learnship over the coming months and years.

300 hours of new content, covering all German language proficiencies

Learnship’s instructional teams have already digitized and adapted 48 units of content from levels A1 to B2, which are now available in Learnship’s virtual classroom.
