Online Introduction to the Regulatory Framework for Social Housing in England

Program Description
This training program is designed for housing professionals, board members, and administrative staff seeking a foundational understanding of social housing oversight in England. Participants explore the statutory expectations placed upon registered providers and gain essential context regarding regulatory changes, consumer rights, and operational standards within the housing sector.
The curriculum covers both economic and consumer standards established by the Social Housing Regulator, focusing on governance, financial viability, rent compliance, and value for money. Key topics include the principles of co-regulation, legal contexts, statutory powers of intervention, and the potential consequences registered housing providers face when failing to meet required performance criteria.
