Making professions tangible: Orientation at Marklohe High School

As part of their practical career orientation program, students in grades 8 through 10 at OBS Marklohe explored their professional futures in depth last week.

In addition to a presentation about FRERK, they gained practical insights into our apprenticeship programs:

- Using bending tools, they created a FRERK elephant from a stainless steel blank – a first glimpse into the profession of construction mechanic (m/f/d)

- Exercises in professional electrical cable processing and assembly into a connector – a preview of the apprenticeship as an electronics technician (m/f/d) for industrial systems

Secure (emergency) power supply through genuine craftsmanship: In these apprenticeships, you'll learn firsthand how modern backup power supply systems work. You'll help make critical infrastructure such as hospitals and data centers crisis-proof. Your work ensures that the lights never go out, even during power outages or under extreme conditions in deserts and ice.
