Michael Faraday Institution e.V. Munich
(Julian's notes,
not official Faraday page.)
-
When I first created this page years back, Faraday/Munich
had no web presence ( On the Faraday blue leaflet available
at the AGM in 2001 there was still no web site
mentioned).
Nothing I could point at from my various berklix pages eg
Hence this page got created.
-
Then for years there were just broken pages:
- January 2002, via Tristram, I heard
Bernadette's son's web pages had finally gone on line, as
official, www.IEEGermany.de.
- Broken / Useless
2004.06.12, 2006.10.19 & 2009.01.17 : Totally
inaccessible unless you've got Shockwave installed. (Not
all operating systems have shock wave, not all people
trust foreign binaries, especially Microsoft virus
compatible. Some only
trust & run source code we can examine & compile
ourselves. )

2006.05 The MFI/IET Germany web-site has been
modified a little to accommodate the amalgamation of
the IEE and the IIE to form the IET (The Institution of
Engineering & Technology). As before, the web-site
can be found at www.ieegermany.de
However the web-site is now also accessible at the
following two new addresses: www.ietgermany.de &
www.theietgermany.de

Thorsten Steentjes on SAGE.De mail list asked in 2004:
Englischsprachige Bezeichnung deutscher
Berufsabschluesse: "Staatlich gepruefter technischer
Assistent fuer Informatik" ?
I replied:
There may well be no colloquially correct name for an
equivalent certification. Such certification as such, may
well not even exist ! Even when similar qualifications
exist, they rarely map exactly. The more someone asserts A
exactly equals B, the more the asserter should be
distrusted ;-) Sometimes one is safer just translating
literally as "German state certified ...."
Germany's keener on bits of paper than Anglo Saxons
are. I'm English, when I left for Muenchen in 1985, I don't
recall the word Informatics even existed (yes I know that's
tempting fate, someone may dig up an obscure reference :-)
Wasn't common though, might be now, or not :-) There's lots
of other bits of paper in Germany, we (fortunately) don't
have in England too, (eg
- Ehe- Unbedenklichkeits- Bescheinigungen
- Gewerbe-Schein
- Anwohner- Melde- Amts- Schein usw
- Regelmaessig Schornstein/Kammer- Putz/Inspektions
Bestaetigungschein or whatever it's called here
;-)
- Identitaets Ausweiss - We don't even have ID cards
- thank god - yet - though UK politicians keep pushing
(we just have passports).
No obstruction by industry in the UK, having a
Gewerbe-Schein demanded of you before purchase, instead you
just get told by wholesale outlets the pragmatic message
"Our minimum order quantity/ value is ...." ...: Different
countries, different systems, so similar certifications may
not exist.
Derek Mullinger added: I suggest the form "German
state-certified Technical Assistant for Informatics" is
probably the best one can do, and it is quit clear.
