The Irish Council for Social Housing (ICSH) is now taking bookings for its 2010 Education and Training programme.

The ICSH are currently offering three Certificate courses – Certificate in Housing Management, Certificate in Housing Development and a Certificate in Special Needs Housing Management.

The Certificates are accredited by the National College of Ireland, a third-level educational institution providing high quality education programmes throughout Ireland. Courses are also FETAC accredited and are mapped to the National Framework of Qualifications.

These courses aim to provide housing practitioners with the practical skills they require in their current roles or to widen their knowledge across different housing roles. They are designed to give housing practitioners an inspiring, challenging and enjoyable learning experience. Staff and board members from housing associations and co-operatives and other voluntary bodies as well as staff from local authorities and the health sector are invited to apply.
