About us

aspire education is the leading educational group in German-speaking countries and the parent company of the renowned enterprises ARS: Academy for Law, Taxes and Economics; ETC: Enterprise Training Centre; ibis acam, KAOS education service, Fast Lane and Stepin.

Our corporate group focuses on lifelong learning as an essential pillar of society. For us, digital learning is much more than just a catchphrase: we set standards. We actively offer solutions for the European economy – to boost productivity, increase innovation and combat the shortage of skilled workers. We provide learners with choices, security and excellent quality.

THE primary task of #missionworklifelearn is to put all this on a clearer, firmer footing.
