EEPLIANT4 Work Package 10: Training and Study Visits 

The objective of Work Package 10 is to further improve the skills and capacities of European MSAs (including MSAs outside the project consortium, both from EU Member States and from countries outside the EU, associated or not with the EU), through tailor-made capacity-building activities, including specialist training events and material, and study visits.

EEPLIANT3 Work Package 5 Concerted training actions, including an exchange programme

Being an inspector within eco-design and energy labelling is a big task. Many (>50) regulations apply covering many very different product types, some of which are very complex. Therefore, continuous training of inspectors is necessary.
As EU regulations apply equally in all Member States with the consequence that market actors should be treated the same regardless of which MS conducts a market surveillance inspection. Exchange and cooperation between MSAs is thus essential to ensure that this becomes reality.
