OUR DECISION

What's going on with BARTENSTEIN Academy…
The world, Europe and also Germany are currently experiencing a difficult time. The Corona crisis has taken away a piece of freedom and light-heartedness from all of us. And perhaps the time has now come to rethink many approaches.
We have now taken the decision to put BARTENSTEIN Academy on hold for some time. We decided to improve the concept for the future. When we‘re back we will offer you the best opportunities!
