Abstract:
The Belgian Society for Radiation Protection (BVS.ABR) has set up a working group in an attempt to clarify and to formalise the requirements for the certification of qualified experts in Belgium. The working group has made a review of the competences of the qualified expert, as defined in the Belgian regulation, and has discussed possible alternatives related to the initial training, the experience and the continuous refreshment of the knowledge. A report was issued in 2004, making the synthesis of the discussions and presenting recommendations for the Belgian Authorities.
The paper presents the conclusions of these investigations. On the basis of this Belgian framework, considerations and suggestions are also made in the perspective of a better harmonisation of the competences and the related requirements at a European level.
