The harmonisation of training programmes for infection control and hospital hygiene (IC/HH) professionals in Europe is a requirement of the Council recommendation on patient safety. The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control commissioned the 'Training Infection Control in Europe' project to develop a consensus on core competencies for IC/HH professionals in the European Union (EU). Core competencies were drafted on the basis of the Improving Patient Safety in Europe (IPSE) project's core curriculum (CC), evaluated by questionnaire and approved by National Representatives (NRs) for IC/HH training. NRs also re-assessed the status of IC/HH training in European countries in 2010 in comparison with the situation before the IPSE CC in 2006. The IPSE CC had been used to develop or update 28 of 51 IC/HH courses. Only 10 of 33 countries offered training and qualification for IC/HH doctors and nurses. The proposed core competencies are structured in four areas and 16 professional tasks at junior and senior level. They form a reference for standardisation of IC/HH professional competencies and support recognition of training initiatives.
在欧洲，协调感染控制和医院卫生（IC/HH）专业人员的培训计划是理事会关于患者安全建议的要求。欧洲疾病预防控制中心委托“培训感染控制在欧洲”项目制定欧盟（EU）IC/HH 专业人员核心能力的共识。核心能力是在改善欧洲患者安全（IPSE）项目核心课程（CC）的基础上起草的，通过问卷调查进行评估，并由 IC/HH 培训的国家代表（NR）批准。NRs 还在 2010 年重新评估了欧洲国家的 IC/HH 培训状况，与 2006 年 IPSE CC 之前的情况进行了比较。IPSE CC 被用于开发或更新 51 个 IC/HH 课程中的 28 个。只有 10 个国家为 IC/HH 医生和护士提供培训和资格认证。拟议的核心能力分为四个领域和 16 个初级和高级专业任务。它们为 IC/HH 专业能力的标准化提供了参考，并支持培训计划的认可。
