Academy of Sports review

Buying is per course rather than a rolling subscription, and the figure moves with the campaign running at the time. For a yardstick, across the online course platforms we track the median entry price sits at €44.59 and the median monthly price at €27.22, so line your chosen course up against those midpoints.

Yes, the trial runs for 14 days, which is a generous window for a business course studied in the evenings. Use it to follow the module structure and judge the teaching before committing. It places Academy of Sports above the median trial length across the platforms we track, so the free stretch is long enough to form a view.

Refunds run for 14 days from the purchase date, the same length as the free trial, so a course that does not work can be returned inside that window. For comparison, DR Certifications lists 30 days, which gives buyers more room. Check the terms on the course page, since the window is counted from the order rather than the first lesson.

The only certificate type listed is completion under completion, so the award confirms you finished the course rather than passing a graded exam. Assessments are part of the study, which gives the completion mark something to sit on. Credits are recognised through zfu, and 63.6% of the wider set relies on CPD instead, so check what your employer accepts.

The material is listed in de, German, so the courses are built for German-speaking learners rather than translated copies. That suits anyone working in a German-speaking market and keeps the terminology in the original. If you need English material, the subject list will not widen the choice, since it reads business only.

The operator is Academy of Sports GmbH, based in Germany, and the business dates back to 2005, so you are dealing with an established company rather than a new seller. A named legal entity and a German base matter for invoices, consumer rights and anyone buying on a company account.

Support runs on chat, phone and help centre, so help is not confined to email. Phone and chat suit quick questions, the help centre suits formal matters such as invoices, and the community gives you other learners to ask. That spread is wider than a help centre alone, and it matters most for people studying around a working day.

The catalogue holds 50 courses, all in the business area under business, so depth is traded for breadth here. A team plan is available, which suits a company training staff on the same material and keeps the billing in a single place rather than split across individual orders.
