ANNEX C - 14
The experiences of the newly qualified assessors, the five candidates for explosives operations
qualifications and the EUExImp partners from GJR and Coimbra University were presented at the
annual conference of the AP3E organisation. AP3E is the Portuguese association for the explosives
sector and it has both companies and individuals as members. AP3E has been following and
disseminating the EUExImp project using their website, newsletter and journal to appeal to the
importance of the adoption of standards in Portugal.
The success of the implementation of the standards in a medium enterprise in the explosives sector
in Portugal and the participation of Coimbra University in this process open good perspectives for
the future adoption of occupational standards in the explosives sector.
