This training uses the new version of the ECS app, updated in 2020-2021, and presents the updated methodology. The costs amount to 125€ for NECC/Cs' members and 375€ for other participants and include the catering as well. Costs for bicycle rental will be added separately.
In addition to this in-person training, an online refreshment course will be organised on 7 February 2023 at the attention of EuroVelo Route Inspectors who completed a training on the European Certification Standard (ECS) prior to 2021. Since the ECS methdology and application have been updated in 2020-2021, the refreshment course covered the changes and updates that EuroVelo Route Inspectors should be aware of.
If you are a EuroVelo Route Inspector trained in the ECS methodology prior to 2020, you can register here to the refreshment course.
EuroVelo Route Inspectors are requested to take a refreshment course at the latest 5 years after earning their certificate, in order to remain on the List of Official Inspectors.

The European Certification Standard (ECS)

The ECS can be used to:
- Officially certify EuroVelo routes, i.e. routes that are very well developed, such as the EuroVelo 15 – Rhine Cycle Route, first fully-certified EuroVelo route.
- Survey EuroVelo routes to get a clear idea of the route development level, analyse the current situation and assess needed investments to improve the route conditions.
- Survey other national/regional cycle routes to assess the situation and prepare action planning tailored to the national/regional needs and goals.
You will find more information on the ECS, as well as downloadable manuals and annexes, on the European Certification Standard page.
