Basic Training
As part of our initiative to harmonise urology training in Europe, we have developed the Residency Traininig Programmes in Urology (RTPU) Certification. Since the introduction of this certification system in 1993, more than 50 programmes have been certified. Today, the title “EBU Certified Training Centre” is considered to be a “Mark of Excellence” and is associated with high standards and strict quality control. More and more centres choose to participate in this initiative every year.
