clear and straightforward assignment of the responsibility regarding RP and has been proven to ensure RP in Germany successfully. The requisite qualification in radiation protection The requisite qualification in radiation shall, as a rule, be acquired through an education suited for the respective area of application, practical experience and successful participation in courses recognized by the competent agency. The education shall be documented by reports, practical experience by supporting documents and successful participation in a course by a certificate. The acquisition of qualification shall be verified and certified by the competent agency. As many radiation protections commissioners do not necessarily have to prove an academic education a diversified system of many different radiation protection courses (more than 60 different courses) for a large amount of different radiation protections commissioners has been established. By implementing this system different levels of educations and practical experiences can be taken into consideration. As each single radiation protections commissioner has to be recognised by the competent authority (together with the proof of the requisite qualification) a radiation protection commissioner can be seen in general as a Radiation Protection Expert although many of these radiation protections commissioners do not necessarily have an academic education. The requisite qualification in radiation protection must be updated at least every five years by a successful participation in a course recognized by the competent agency or other measures of further education recognized as suitable by the competent agency.
