E-Learning

E-learning

Our group training - in-house and open courses - are always very popular....

....But face-to- face isn't always the most practical solution.

We recognise that there are times when you need an internet based course that you can access at your own pace and at a time that suits you.

So..... we've started developing E-learning!

Our first E-learning course is all about the new rules for Mixed Age Couples. There's more to the issue than you might think!

We're working on many more - you'll soon be able to try our suite of Universal Credit courses.

If you would like to know more about any of our training -both e-learning and tailor made in-house courses - please email us: training@housingsystems.co.uk!

NOTE: If you aren't a Housing Systems member you can still access these courses on our Learning Portal - click here.

Mixed age couples - new rules

Learning at your fingertips.......

Designed to help you get to grips with the complexities of the new rules on Pension Credit and Housing Benefit for mixed age couples introduced on 15th May 2019.

Many mixed age couples will have options - take the wrong one and they could be £140.00 a week worse off!

These courses will help learners understand the new rules and help them ensure they give accurate advice.

We have devised the following two courses:

Mixed Age Couples: getting to grips with the new rules - the Essentials

Mixed Age Couples: getting to grips with the new rules - Advanced

The Essentials course takes about 45 mins to complete and is aimed at those learners who need to have an awareness of the new rules, the implications and when to sign post a mixed age couple for help.

The Advanced course takes about 1 1/2 - 2 hours to complete and is aimed at benefit advisers and learners who need a more in-depth knowledge of the new rules to ensure they are giving accurate advice to their clients.
