What are the disadvantages of the "qualified electrical installation and safety expert" course?

As a qualified electrical installation and safety expert, you will be able to run your own business or work in a managerial role in the electrical industry. You will take on tasks in the areas of installation, safety, planning, project management, personnel management or marketing.

The main disadvantages of the "Certified Electrical Installation and Safety Expert" course are:

1. The "qualified electrical installation and safety expert" course is usually completed over one to two years while working. The time budget must be well managed. The double burden of training and work in combination with a management function further exacerbates the time crunch.
2. In addition to technical and construction knowledge, the training also requires analytical and conceptual skills, a sense of responsibility, networked thinking and action as well as customer and service orientation. None of this can be taught during training.
3. The qualification "Dipl. Elektroinstallations- und Sicherheitsexperte" is not yet known when applying to foreign employers, which can be a disadvantage. University degrees are probably preferred there.
4. The pressure of the annual federal final exams is high, but you are well prepared for them. There are regular learning checks and mock exams.

Qualified electrical installation and safety experts work in their own company or take on managerial roles in the electrical installation trade, in industrial or service companies. Even if the electrical sector is subject to economic fluctuations, highly qualified specialists are generally in high demand.
