In addition to other apprenticeships, it has now also been training solar installers since 2024.  <\/p>\n<p>Mael is one of the second generation of apprentices training for the new profession of Solar Installer EFZ. This apprenticeship combines manual work with aspects of technology and energy. It wasn\u2019t to be taken for granted that he would quickly feel at home on the roof after starting his apprenticeship: \u00abIt took me some time to get used to it.
