Do you train international groups? Then you know how much time it takes to translate all your content. Starting now, LearningStone will do that for you thanks to an integration with DeepL, the innovative European AI translation service. With just a few clicks, you can automatically translate course timeline blocks and public pages using AI, so every participant can learn in their own language. TMA Talentmanagment – a leading international company with its roots in the Netherlands – is delighted.
Automatic Translation with AI
People learn best in their own language. They grasp the material more quickly, are more likely to ask questions, and participate more actively in assignments and discussions. Those who have to learn in a second language devote part of their attention to the act of translating itself.
For you as a trainer, this also offers business benefits. You can offer the same training to international teams and new markets without high translation costs or long turnaround times. You maintain a single course timeline instead of a separate version for each language. And you can more quickly say yes to a client who asks if the training is also available in German or English.
Multilingual content was already possible in LearningStone. You can add a language per course timeline block via the “Language” tab. Until now, however, you had to write those translations yourself or have them done. With a course timeline containing dozens of blocks, that quickly adds up to a lot of work, especially with forms containing dozens of questions and answers.
That’s changed now! LearningStone uses DeepL for this - the best AI translation service available today. You select a language pair, and the translation appears immediately in the correct language tab. You can then review it at your leisure to ensure it reflects your own style of language.

TMA Talent Management:
At TMA, we want our international participants to feel right at home in their learning journey. After all, people learn best in their own language. With LearningStone’s new AI translation feature, we can translate content lightning-fast while maintaining full control over the content. It saves us a tremendous amount of manual work, allowing us to focus all our energy on what really matters: the pedagogical quality and impact of our blended training programs.
You can either copy a course timeline and translate it, so that you have two versions or create a multilingual version with language tabs in the editor.
For both options, you can use AI to translate quickly.
Go to a course timeline block or a public workspace page and choose the “Language” tab. Choose a language pair (e.g English > Spanish and choose “Automatically” to translate with AI.
Your strings are sent to DEEPL (in Germany) but are kept secret.
Be careful with translating all the blocks at the same time or removing a language. Consider making a back-up copy of the course timeline before you start as this is a power tool!

The final phase of a training is not just a formality. It is the moment where insights crystallize, commitments are made, and participants get a tangible sense of what they have learned and achieved.
Trainers who actively engage with their groups know this: managing assignments and progress can quickly become a messy hassle that requires keeping track of all sorts of things. LearningStone’s…
