De EFOMP zal op 9 en 10 mei 2011 een workshop houden in het Spaanse Sevilla over het vormen van een Europese richtlijn voor de competenties van een Medical Physics Expert (klinisch fysicus). Accreditatie voor deze workshop is aangevraagd bij de Commissie Kwaliteit. Het doel van de vergadering  is volgens de EFOMP:

The main objective of this project is to provide for improved implementation of the Medical Exposures Directive (MED) provisions related to the Medical Physics Expert (MPE) and to facilitate the harmonisation of the MPE among the European Union Member States. Therefore the project will also support the European Commission in its activities relating to the optimisation of radiation protection of individuals submitted to medical exposures.

In addition the project will:
· issue a widely accepted document at European level that eventually could be considered as a European Guideline on the professional competences for the MPE and the minimum requirements to be acknowledged as MPE according to the MED,
· make recommendations for the most appropriate education and Higher Education Area, to achieve the defined required professional competences,
· propose a detailed “standard” syllabus for the education and training of the MPE,
· update criteria for staffing levels in Medical Physics Departments depending on the complexity and equipment of Radiological Services
