Program Description

This program provides essential legal awareness for professionals working within private registered providers of social housing across England. Designed for housing officers, lettings staff, rent teams, property compliance personnel, and policy leads, the curriculum clarifies the practical implications of the Renters' Rights legislation. Participants gain the clarity required to manage regulatory transitions smoothly and align organizational operations with updated statutory timelines.

The curriculum spans four targeted modules covering tenancy agreements, possession rules, and property maintenance standards. Learners examine the move from fixed-term to periodic rolling assured tenancies, the mandatory information sheets for tenants, Section 13A rent increases, and the abolition of Section 21 evictions. The course also details the updated Decent Homes Standard, strict damp and mould compliance schedules under Awaab's Law, and crucial distinction between rules governing the private and social housing sectors.

Delivered through a flexible, self-paced online learning platform, the course enables participants to progress through interactive content in approximately thirty minutes. Knowledge acquisition is verified through an end-of-course assessment requiring an eighty percent pass score, with multiple retake attempts permitted. Successful participants earn an immediately downloadable CPD-certified credential confirming their regulatory competence.
