Was macht ein Informatiker EFZ kurz gesagt?
In short, what does a Federal VET Diploma computer scientist do?
Information and communication technologies are everywhere today and frequently influence our everyday lives - for example through Instagram or weather forecasts. A Federal VET Diploma computer scientist plans, develops, installs and operates computers and other IT systems - from smartphones and networked cars to large industrial plants. Their activities also include implementation, testing and operation. He or she can use their IT knowledge to work in the company during the four-year computer scientist apprenticeship. The area of responsibility is geared towards the specialization of the Federal VET Diploma computer scientist apprenticeship: Application development (programming apps, interactive websites and other software applications), systems engineering (installing hardware and software and setting up computer networks) or business informatics (providing support with IT problems using computers, servers and networks). The work is therefore very exciting and varied. Federal VET Diploma computer scientists also attend vocational school 1 to 2 days a week throughout their apprenticeship to build up and expand their IT knowledge. They also attend 35 days of inter-company courses (ÜK) over the entire apprenticeship period.
