The Exchange of Experts System in the field of Civil
Protection "EUCIVEX" originated in the framework of the Mechanism as a
special tool.
Indeed, the driving concept is to reinforce the cooperation in civil
protection training whereby individuals can be seconded to teams in other
Member States.
|
The aim of this secondment is to allow the expert(s)
to gain experience in other fields, familiarise themselves with various
techniques used, to study approaches taken by other emergency services or by
other competent bodies or, if necessary, to attend or give courses requiring
specific expert knowledge not available in the host country.

Exercise
|
It is through this System, in particular, that those
responsible at a regional and local level benefit most.
The duration may vary in length from a few days to a few weeks depending the
type of Exchange involved. See the
Guidelines...
