Training on improving the use of the private rented sector for those in housing need
In partnership with Inside Housing Solutions and supported by CLG, Crisis has recently developed a training package on improving the use of the private rented sector to assist those in housing need. Topics include:
Government, finance departments, landlords and not least tenants are asking organisations to be more innovative when creating and developing schemes that facilitate and sustain access in the PRS. This training package will assist you in moving towards a financially sustainable approach that meets the needs of your local landlords and is effective in preventing and tackling homelessness locally.
Training
There are a number of other training providers offering specialist courses for those working with homeless people and working to house people in the private rented sector.
