Abstract
One of the main aims of the European Federation of Organisations for Medical Physics is to propose guidelines for education, training and accreditation programmes. This is achieved through the publication of Policy Statements and the organisation of education and training courses, seminars and conferences. It represents a long-term workprogramme aimed at harmonising the education and training of the Medical Physicist across Europe. This paper presents these efforts together with the challenges EFOMP needs to overcome in order to achieve these aims.
