The EUTERP project can be considered as a follow-up of two earlier projects,
namely a survey of the status of the Radiation Protection Experts in the Member
and Candidate States of the European Union, carried out in 2002 [1] , and a
feasibility study for a work programme and structure of the EUTERP Platform,
carried out in 2004 [2] . Both projects recommended the establishment of the
EUTERP Platform to address a number of issues related to education, training,
recognition and mutual acceptance of Radiation Protection Experts.
