Wow that's a long Apprenticeship. I hope at least its paid.
Here you have to work 6 months "test period" or kinda like Apprenticeship(for each new job) with lower pay of course and everyday the boss can tell you, you don't need to come to work tomorrow. The bonus is you can get hired after the Apprenticeship in the same firm.
For some time even that morons in the parliament thought, hey lets make the test period for the people out of the universities free of pay, just for fun.

Apprenticeships are a bit different in Switzerland. A four year Apprenticeship (SW Development) in Switzerland means:
Year 1: Basic course (3 days / week) and school (2 day/week)
Year 2: Work in a productive Environment on real life projects (2-3 school days / week)
Year 3: Work in a productive Environment on real life projects (2-3 school days / week)
Year 4: Work in a productive Environment on real life projects (1 school day / week + 80 hours final project which counts 50 % of the graduation grade)
After 4 years you are certified to work as Software Developer and still able to go to Uni to get a Bachelor's degree while you work part-time as Software Developer.

Good luck Marco and enjoy your time off.

Well all i know about SharePoint is what i saw of it at a previous job, other than that nothing much. A buddy of mine's little brother is soon to be ready for the study world after the great school tragedy, and he somewhere heard about a great job opportunity for SharePoint Development in which they will sent you to study on their account and then he can work for them. 
So I was wondering if the CP Developers community could help me explain what it is. From what I gather it is ALOT of XML and some web services etc. Anyone know or work/worked as a SharePoint developer that can give me a easy explanation on what it is? IE to what can I relate SharePoint to understand what type of coding etc it is?

A somewhat chastened programmer/technician once described to me as a glorified web based version of Exchange Public Folders.
He might have underestimated it just slightly though.

A webbased multi-user version of MS Access. Used for lists, not tables.

Depends on what you're working; the most visible part of SP is the ASP.NET part. Then again, you could also be writing an addin for some desktop application that manipulates some list in SharePoint. Or create a SilverLight application that gets hosted on the site.

Ok so that clarifies it up a bit. Basically FrontEnd development using XML and asp.net?

Yes, no. It's easy to make front-ends, but you don't need a dev for that. There's a LOT of extension-points in the product.
Think WebParts, SilverLight, webservices, workflows, CAML.. Lots[^] on MSDN

It's MS's version of Office documents' CMS. It also supports workflows and version control, the latter to some degree I believe.

It all depends on what you do with it. The workflow part could be very useful in a large organization.

I thought about it this way (To make it easier to explain)... If I was now offered a huge (not ridiculously large just quite better) salary to work as a SP dev would I do it? Problem is I do not really know what it is LoL

If you don't know it and the company that wants to pay you more knows you don't know it, it doesn't hurt for you to learn it, especially if you're trying to get out of your old company. Or maybe you can just keep looking.

All true yes, well then thinking about it I might tell him to do it. Let's face it, he is still young and might as well give it a try and see how it works out. It is not like I stuck to the first job I ever got.

Isn't that the root of most problems though, trying to convert something that shouldn't be done and just starting from scratch?

Probably. The person I inherited the project from said if he'd been allowed to use Real Web Tools (tm), he'd've had it done with only half the time he spent. By the end of my time in hell I reached the same conclusion; and to add insult to injury the spreadsheet continued acquiring new requirements through the whole process and AFAIK is still what is being used in production.

Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

According to my calculations, I should be able to retire about 5 years after I die.
