Summary/Abstract: The dynamics in the logistics sector require new approaches to the initial and periodic training of workers in the sector.

The purpose of the report is to make a comparative analysis of the applicable practices in Europe in terms of access to the profession of Transport Manager. The practices in 7 European countries were analyzed. The results show that different countries use in different ways the opportunities provided by the Regulation, with two of the countries, Italy and Austria, on the two opposite sides. Based on the analysis, some recommendations for future research are proposed.
