Introducing the DeepL Academy: Effortless onboarding for your team

Nothing says “Welcome aboard!” like an incomprehensible new AI tool with a 47-step setup guide, a mountain of technical documentation, and a broken Support Center link. Daunting onboarding processes like this mean that the average time-to-value for new hires is around 56 days—that’s nearly two months for a new employee to learn the ropes of a platform and start bringing meaningful value to your team! 

But you don’t have two months. You want your new hires to get up to speed with all of your processes as quickly as possible, be as productive as they can be, and start driving efficiency with the new solution you’ve invested in. 

We understand that, which is why we’re so excited to formally announce the DeepL Academy! 

The Academy is a comprehensive collection of resources — videos, webinars and online courses — that enable you to onboard new team members in a fraction of the time, without skimping on quality. And with faster onboarding, you get more value from your investment and more engagement across your teams. 

What does DeepL Academy offer?

A recent Salesforce report showed that although over half of users expect their service providers to anticipate their needs, only around one-third of users actually feel their needs are being met.

At DeepL, we wanted to make sure we’re in that 33% of providers meeting user needs. That’s why we base our Academy’s resources on what our customers have told us they want through surveys and interviews, not on what we assume they’d be interested in:

• Video guides: Our library of video tutorials walks new users through DeepL’s features, ensuring they understand how to use the platform effectively from day one. These include videos like Master DeepL Translator,Keep your translations consistent with glossaries andCraft the perfect text every time with Write.

• Tailored learning paths: What you need to learn depends on what your goals are. To make things easier, we’ve organized content in the Academy based on use cases—such as DeepL Basics, Developer, Management, etc.—so you only spend time learning the features you need at that moment. You can always come back and learn about the others later!
• Webinars: Our long-form recorded webinars give you and your team in-depth explanations and demonstrations of DeepL’s most powerful features. Watch some of our most recent webinars here, like How DeepL Write Pro boosts efficiency and improves global communication, and The AI legal revolution: addressing challenges and shaping the future.
• Bite-sized lessons: What if you don’t have a lot of time to learn the ins and outs of our platform? No problem! Each course contains a series of micro-learnings that help you come to grips with a new skill in minutes, including DeepL apps and integrations, and DeepL document translation.
• Certification: Through our structured training programs, your team members can become DeepL-certified, showing their proficiency with the platform. The certification boosts their confidence and lets them stand out on LinkedIn.
