Condensation, Damp and Mould: Causes & Cures (Technical Officers) 12th February 2025 – Live online
Damp and mould is high on the agenda of housing associations and Councils and there is little doubt that staff should be aware of the current requirements.
This full day course, aimed at technical officers, is a ‘must attend’ session that builds on existing understanding, dispels myths associated with the subject and considers sometimes inappropriate ‘general’ advice given to interested parties, including tenants and residents.
Often utilising a ‘generic’ and outdated understanding of a number of factors and conditions responsible, the specific issues of individuals are not always identified/addressed. We know that recent ‘improvements to stock have compounded the condensation problem and clouded ‘non-culpable/culpable’ responsibility issues, so we take a look at what we should consider in today’s ever-changing world.
This session challenges understanding and ensures delegates go away with the confidence and understanding needed to protect the relevant parties’ interests. It is ideally suited to building surveyors, maintenance surveyors and inspectors, asset officers, housing colleagues and everyone from a more technical background who requires an understanding of this subject area.

Condensation, Damp & Mould for Non-Technical Staff
13th February 2025 – Live Online
Some non-technical staff dealing with damp and condensation issues at the front line, be they visiting tenants at properties or dealing with reports over the phone, don’t always appreciate, or readily understand, the underlying causes to enable them to effectively diagnose or eliminate contributing factors. They are simply not aware of the circumstance of tenants and/or what the impact could be of not addressing the problem appropriately.
This half-day session challenges understanding and ensures delegates go away with the confidence and understanding needed to protect the relevant parties’ interests. It is ideally suited to housing officers, customer contact centre staff, estate and neighbourhood staff and everyone from a non-technical background who requires an understanding of this subject area.

Understanding Your Asbestos Survey Reports
