Further to developing the 2021 ETR in Paediatric Endocrinology & Diabetes (PED) with the Short-term Task Force, it was requested from the board of the Italian Society of Paediatric Endocrinology and Diabetology (ISPED/SIEDP) to disseminate the ETR in Italy. The ETR provides standards for specialist centres, trainers and trainees to ensure uniform training, improve the quality of care for children and adolescents, and promote the development of a European network of third-level care PED centres. In Italy, children and adolescents can be managed by either paediatric or adult specialists because training in PED is not required to provide specialist care. Thus the ETR is also vital for national policy makers to address this anomaly.
