July 10 marked the official conclusion of the on-site internship for 84 students from the T1GC classes in the construction technician training program. Over the past eight weeks, they worked at a construction company, where they gained a great deal of practical experience and documented it in a report. A survey conducted after the internship revealed that 97% of the students said they had learned a great deal about building materials and construction methods. A full 95% of the students rated the respectful and collegial interaction with the workers on the construction site as very positive. Teamwork and the atmosphere on the construction site were the most appreciated aspects, while working in the rain and the early start time (which is 7:00 a.m. on many sites) were less well-received. Following the completion of the internship, 10 certificates were also awarded to the students who performed best in the 2013 intermediate integrated project.
