As the ERNCIP project has concluded its first phase, this book documents and consolidates the work performed by the network, particularly the work of its thematic groups (TGs) between 2011 and 2014. It is co‑authored by some of the TG coordinators and the ERNCIP office. Moreover, this book outlines important lessons learned, and outlines the objectives for the next phase of the ERNCIP (2015 onwards). Finally, the book serves as a single point of reference for the activities of the first phase of the ERNCIP, thereby contributing to the communication and promotion of the ERNCIP to the CIP community. The ERNCIP book is organised into five sections. Initially, the ERNCIP project, its context and its history are summarised, followed by a description of the current structure and implementation status of the network. Subsequent sections focus on the ERNCIP inventory and platform (Section 3), and the ERNCIP TGs (Section 4). The text illustrates the hands‑on approach of each TG, starting with a specific area of concern, creating a work programme to address the problem using subject‑matter experts. The book concludes with the lessons learned and a brief outlook on the future for the ERNCIP network.
