“Many jobs cannot be filled because there is a lack of suitable skilled workers…” is the statement from the Federal College of REFRIGERATION AND AIR CONDITIONING TECHNOLOGY in Maintal. Around 20,000 people are employed in 2,000 companies. They need around 2,000 trainees in the refrigeration engineering trade.
Constantly new areas of application and the progressive development towards high-tech have an extremely positive influence on KÄLTE-KLIMATECHNIK and provide good opportunities for the next generation.
For young refrigeration engineers, this specialist profession offers career and promotion opportunities as a journeyman, assembly manager, master craftsman, technician or graduate engineer (FH).
How do you become a mechatronics engineer for refrigeration technology?
In a recognized master refrigeration company, secondary school leavers receive three and a half years of training. During this time, he/she learns all the practical knowledge and skills required to successfully complete the apprenticeship.
Inter-company training courses round off the knowledge and skills required for training as a mechatronics technician for refrigeration technology.
After passing the final examination, you will have the job title of mechatronics technician for refrigeration technology. (Until July 2007, the job title was refrigeration technician).
With the great demand for qualified junior staff, it is not difficult to apply your knowledge and skills as a mechatronics technician for refrigeration technology while earning a very good salary.
Theoretical training and preparatory courses for the master craftsman’s examination are held in various cities throughout Germany. The further training measures are subsidized.
Mechatronics engineers for refrigeration technology can attend a university of applied sciences via the second educational pathway and successfully graduate with a degree in engineering (FH).
