European Humanist Professionals (EHP) was formed in 1994 to support the work of humanist professionals based in the continent of Europe. Through the decades, EHP has offered training and networking events to humanist professionals working on the three core areas of humanist services; ceremonies, education and existential care. Through a diverse array of training opportunities, such as seminars, webinars, summer-schools, congresses and online resources, EHP has been supporting humanist professionals in developing their skills and thus extending the quality of humanist services in Europe.
