Infraserv employee is nation’s best graduating electronics technician
Federal President Steinmeier honors Laurent Schulze at the IHK National Valedictorian Awards in Berlin
An Infraserv Höchst employee is the German “champion” in his field: Laurent Schulze aced his final exams in the winter of 2017/18, becoming the nation’s best electronics technician for building and infrastructure systems. The 25-year-old received the award from the Conference of German Chambers of Industry and Commerce in Berlin on December 3 as part of the National Valedictorian Awards for IHK Professions. (“IHK” is a German acronym for the Chamber of Industry and Commerce.) The keynote speaker at this year’s awards ceremony was Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier.
Laurent Schulze started his training program at Infraserv Höchst in 2015 and took his final examination in SCADA technology. “We’re thrilled that our employee is one of Germany’s best graduating vocational trainees. That’s an honor for his trainers at Provadis and in the field, too,” said Joachim Kreysing, Managing Director of Infraserv Höchst. The industrial service provider, like many other companies at Industriepark Höchst and in the Rhine-Main Region, entrusts the training of its vocational trainees to Provadis, one of its subsidiaries and Hesse’s largest training and development company.
The Frankfurt IHK had already recognized Laurent Schulze in October as the best trainee in the state of Hesse. “I really enjoyed the training program, which made it incredibly easy to learn and study,” reported the nation’s best graduating electronics technician for building and infrastructure systems, who will be pursuing a degree in IT security on a part-time basis while working.
Every year, over 300,000 vocational trainees take their final examinations before an IHK. The chamber then identifies the graduates with the best overall final exam grades in the various training programs. Around 200 of these valedictorians are honored with awards each year.
