In 1974, Charles Heinle bought the rights to Pimsleur and set up Heinle & Heinle Enterprises. The courses were repackaged and marketed as 'CCD/Tapeway Programs'. and Beverly Heinle at The Center for Curriculum Development in Philadelphia. Starting in 1969–1970, having tried unsuccessfully to market the programs, Pimsleur gave them to Charles A.S. The programs were originally called 'A Tapeway Program'.

Pimsleur offers courses for 50 languages with English as the source language, and 14 ESL courses. It is a division of Simon & Schuster, a publishing company which is a subsidiary of Paramount Global.
