Sunderland College will be delivering a pilot programme in 2025 in collaboration with the Chartered Institute of Housing, other Further Education providers and local housing associations. Our qualification will enable housing professionals to meet regulatory requirements through the four mandatory units of 'Housing policy', 'Housing law and regulation', 'Customer focus in housing' and 'Professionalism in housing'. In addition, we will be including two optional units chosen by our partners: 'Support health and wellbeing in housing' and 'Resident involvement in housing'.

We are collaborating with our partners to design and implement our pilot programme combining student study with their ongoing practical work commitments.
