Our offers for teachers and schools
We develop teaching materials for teachers in the fields of science and economics and promote the exchange of schools and vocational schools with the USA and Canada.
Digital teaching materials and methods are particularly important to us, as is the focus on inquiry-based learning in science teaching. We design our programs together with teachers and schools in order to tailor them precisely to the needs of teachers. We also offer various programs for the personal development of motivated and talented students and trainees.

With our analog and digital business games, we make it easier for students to access economic topics.
Learning portals for science education
LEIFIphysics
How does an induction stove work? Why does it storm in autumn? Are rare earths really rare? LEIFIphysik provides students with the physics knowledge they need to answer these questions. With over 600,000 visitors per month, LEIFIphysik is one of the largest learning portals for students in the field of science.
LEIFIchemie
Where is chemistry actually found everywhere? What is a state of matter? And how are new substances created? LEIFIchemie provides students in fifth grade and above with everything they need to know for chemistry lessons: everyday knowledge, interactive tasks and simulations, as well as videos and experiments.
Tips for digital teaching

With our digital offerings for economics and science subjects, we want to support teachers in teaching in a contemporary and student-oriented way. Our publication series "Naturwissenschaften digital: Toolbox für den Unterricht" (Digital Science: Toolbox for the Classroom) provides suggestions for the practical use of digital tools in the classroom, while the web-based computer game "Isle of Economy" teaches basic economic mechanisms alongside lessons.
Exchange support for schools & vocational schools

For vocational schools
The program "GATE - German Apprenticeship Training Exchange" supports vocational schools in establishing an exchange program with a college in the USA or Canada.

For schools
GAPP (German American Partnership Program) supports school partnerships between schools in Germany and the United States by promoting reciprocal exchange encounters between school groups.
Encourage students

We offer students and trainees a variety of opportunities for self-improvement and further development, such as our "grips gewinnt" scholarship, which supports dedicated and talented students from the 9th grade onwards on their educational path. It is often dedicated teachers who see potential in students. We would therefore be delighted if you, as a teacher, could pass on our offers to your students and trainees.
