The Training Course was developed within the project 19NET03 supportBSS, the European Metrology Network for Radiation Protection and will be organized by the EURADOS WG02 Harmonization of Individual Monitoring in Europe, together with EEAE in Athens.

This educational and training event is supported by the project Opens external link in new window19NET03 supportBSS, the Opens external link in new windowEuropean Metrology Network for Radiation Protection and its partner the Bundesamt für Strahlenschutz (BfS) and the UK Health Security Agency (UK HSA).

The project 19NET03 supportBSS has received funding from the EMPIR programme co-financed by the Participating States and from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme.

The general organization is done by Oliver Hupe, PTB.

The aim of the course is to cover the theoretical background of handling emergencies and to expand it with practical measurement exercises.

This training course will consist of 3 days of lectures and discussions in combination with one day of practical exercises in small groups of 5 persons. Lecturers from different European institutes will present various topics from different perspectives.
