Cost
This new programme seeks to bring about a common understanding among Inspectorate Staff, and thereby a standardisation, in interpretation and implementation of the Regulations and Guidelines both within individual local authorities and across the sector generally.
The programme consists of 4 modules, however, in order to minimise the time away from work for participants, training will be delivered over 2 separate 2-day workshops. Each of the modules will take place at the IPA Training and Education Centre on Lansdowne Road in Dublin 4. The modules will involve a variety of training methods including presentations – delivered by experienced housing practitioners and sector experts – group exercises and discussions.
This course is ideally suited for newcomers into the area of enforcement of the minimum standards. It will enable all participants share individual experiences and approaches as currently adopted, as well as providing an opportunity to network with other Inspectorate Staff.
