This is the only certified Wwise training program in Germany, designed for those preparing for a career in interactive audio across games, immersive media, location-based entertainment, and other emerging digital fields.

Wwise is the audio engine behind thousands of games — from indie studios to AAA productions like The Witcher, Assassin’s Creed, and Call of Duty. It’s used by CD Projekt Red, Ubisoft, Electronic Arts, and nearly every major studio worldwide. But Wwise is no longer limited to gaming: automotive engineers use it for spatial audio in electric vehicles, museums create interactive sound installations, and theaters build immersive audience experiences.

Studios need people who can implement interactive audio efficiently, work with Unity and Unreal Engine, and deliver professional results from day one. This official 4-day Audiokinetic certification gives you exactly what employers demand: proven skills in interactive audio implementation.
