Frequently asked questions from future apprentices

What is the difference from the Electronics Technician for Industrial Engineering?

The industrial electrician apprenticeship lasts only 2 years and focuses purely on the hands-on practice of assembly and testing. The Electronics Technician apprenticeship lasts 3.5 years and goes even deeper into software and programming. The brilliant thing at L&S: after the 2 years you can simply upgrade and add the Electronics Technician qualification straight away!

Will my tools and work clothing be provided?

Yes, absolutely! Right at the start of your apprenticeship we kit you out completely with high-quality work clothing and your personal protective equipment. In our production area you work exclusively with professional measuring devices and tools.

Who helps me if the material at vocational school gets too hard?

You are not alone. Our experienced master craftsmen and technicians take the time to practise hands-on techniques and theoretical fundamentals with you, so that you go into the exams completely confident.
