Oskar Sauerbrey was a vocational trainee in the 2016/2017-2019 training cycle:

In co-operation with the Potsdam Chamber of Crafts, Oskar was involved not only during his vocational training but also as a journeyman as a training ambassador. In this role, he visited schools to encourage pupils to discover their individual interests and talents. He provided insights into his own training as a precision mechanic at the institute and tried to convey his enthusiasm for this craft.

Here is an interview with Oskar from the Press and Public Relations Section.
