Abstract:
One of the aims of EFOMP is to organise events for education, training and continuous professional development. For this reason, the European Federation of Organisations for Medical Physics has developed a series of schools, called the European School for Medical Physics Experts (ESMPE). These are designed for medical physicists working as Medical Physics Experts (MPE) or in training to become an MPE and the level of training is at EQF level 8. The quality of training offered is accredited by the European Board for Accreditation in Medical Physics.EFOMP schoolstarget new topics included in the revised core curricula and guidelines for Medical Physics Experts in various subspecialties, which are rapidly evolving, as well as areas where the Medical Physicist plays a key role. The 28th ESMPE school was entitled "Statistics in Medical Physics".
