INNES Institute Vienna is an educational institute specialized in German language courses, customized academic programs, and short academic programs for international students and professionals. Our aim is to stimulate intellectual and personal development in an open and diverse environment. We enable our course participants to develop the knowledge and skills they need for succeeding in their fields. We provide an educational platform for all creative and open-minded brains to share their thoughts, expertise and experience. Our school works to the highest international academic standards and we have had excellent reviews from former participants, e.g:

Since I have experience in other courses in other institutes, I must say I really, really liked courses at INNES. For me it was very useful, very helpful and I really learned a lot. Moreover, I think it is good that we are obligated to have tests and do our homework. Our teacher explained everything in detail and whenever we had questions our needed help she was there. Big thank you, and hopefully I will take my B1.2 level again at INNES soon. German course participant, 2016
