# Can I start in-house and then switch to online?

Until now, we do not offer hybrid courses. Therefore it is **not possible** to switch between online and in-house courses during a running course. In our courses we guarantee a maximum number of participants, so we need to know which course format you would like to attend at the time of booking. Furthermore, the course book is not always consistent. 

For in-person courses, it is also not possible to transfer to another DeutschAkademie location during an ongoing course. ☝🏻

After completing each course level, you are free to choose whether to continue learning online or in-house. For example, you can take A1.1 in person and then A1.2 online (or vice versa).
