 Welcome

Since 2013, the VICTORIA | Academy of Languages, formerly the F+U

Academy of Languages, has specialized in offering language courses
to prepare students for university as well as tailor-made corporate and
government training, which are held at the International Education
Campus near Potsdamer Platz, on-site at our clients’ premises or live
online in virtual classrooms. As a test centre for a wide range of test
formats (TestDaF, TOEFL, etc.) and languages, we support our stu-
dents until they have successfully completed their language training.
Since 2017, we have also been authorized to call ourselves a “telc
Competence Center University”. Our international expertise helps hun-
dreds of young people from all over the world to study in Germany.

Our clients benefit from the decades of experience of our language

schools and our higher education institutions, our flexibility and
homo­geneous learning groups. The family-run F+U group of compa-
nies is one of the largest private education providers in Germany with
over 40 years of experience. It has locations throughout Germany and
in other European countries and cooperates with public and private
educational institutions worldwide.

Since 2021, the VICTORIA | Academy of Languages has been part of

the VICTORIA | International University of Applied Sciences – formerly
the Hochschule für Wirtschaft, Technik und Kultur (hwtk), for which we
have been acting as the International Office since 2017. The upgrade
as a language institute further sharpens our profile and emphasizes
our proximity to the academic world. Not only can our ECTS-eligible
language courses be credited toward a later university degree, but
VICTORIA University’s specialization in dual study programs in the
model of the split-week is also reflected in our language courses: All
intensive courses are now geared towards the most effective possible
interlinkage of theory and practice. In dozens of subject areas and
sectors, from law to marketing, healthcare and international manage-
ment, we have our finger on the pulse and know exactly what is
­important in terms of technical language.

With us, you can achieve your goal easily, quickly and according to
plan – regardless of whether you want to go to university or continue
your job training.
