Distance Learning Courses

Our distance learning courses are perfect for you if you want to acquire comprehensive specialist knowledge and put it directly into practice - flexibly and without stress. You can decide for yourself when and where you want to study and you are free to organize your own learning conditions.

A distance learning course offers you maximum flexibility: You set your own pace and can study whenever it suits you. Only courses that include online seminars have set dates for these virtual meetings with our instructors. Otherwise, you have complete freedom to manage your own schedule.

A distance learning course is also financially worthwhile: You save on travel costs and time off work. Plus, a Haufe Akademie significantly boosts your career prospects! Completing a course on your own also demonstrates organizational skills, initiative, and commitment—qualities that employers value highly.

It depends on your own pace! As a guide, we recommend around five hours per week in order to make continuous progress. But don't worry: you decide your own learning pace - that's one of the biggest advantages of a distance learning course.

The duration depends on how intensively you study and how many learning units the course has. With around five hours per week, you could complete a course in four to six months - but again, you set your own pace! You have access to all content for a total of 12 months. We are happy to offer you a one-off free extension of six months if required.

All of our distance learning courses are state-certified and approved by the Central Office for Distance Learning (ZFU) in Cologne—giving you the assurance that you’re choosing quality. Through a rigorous review process, experienced experts verify that the content and curriculum meet high professional and pedagogical standards. This means you can be confident that you’re learning with thoroughly vetted materials that meet state quality requirements. Your success is important to us—and we ensure it with the utmost care!
