      Leading Medical Physics to a Sustainable Future 

      17th-19th March 2025, Brussels, Belgium

      EFOMP together with the European Cancer Organisation (ECO) and the European Network for Training and Education of Medical Physics Experts (EUTEMPE) and in collaboration with the European Nuclear Education Network (ENEN) would like to invite you to the EFOMP leadership course on 17th-19th March 2025. 

      EFOMP's strategic roadmap for the coming years embraces a holistic approach, aiming to integrate all aspects of medical physics, from research and education to clinical practice and sustainability. Especially, it encompasses the strengthening of the Early Career Medical Physicists voice. Purposes of the leadership course are: 

      • To train and identify future leaders in medical physics across Europe, ensuring a strong pipeline of capable professionals. 

      • To educate participants on the existing structures of influence within Europe, enabling them to effectively navigate and utilize these frameworks to maximize patient benefits. 

      • To provide valuable networking opportunities for current leaders, fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange within the field. 

      This three days event is accredited by the European Board of Accreditation for Medical Physics (EBAMP) as a CPD event for Medical Physicists at EQF Level 8 (30 CPD points). Attendees who also successfully pass the assessment obtain an extra 8 CPD points for an overall total of 38 CPD points. The Accreditation Code for the event is: APP00315 

      The course will be in a hybrid format and is designed for medical physicists at every stage of their careers.
