Professional Development
Practical training focused on housing, building safety, and risk management — designed for professionals working in real residential environments.
Overview
Civitas delivers training focused on housing, building safety, and practical risk management.
Our sessions are designed for professionals working in real residential environments, including local authority teams, housing providers, and property managers.
What We Cover
Understanding key responsibilities, risks, and practical actions within residential buildings. Covering the Building Safety Act, accountable persons, and day-to-day safety management.
Understanding surveys, design, delivery, and coordination in adaptation projects. A practical guide to the Disabled Facilities Grant process from referral to completion.
Practical approaches to assessing and supporting residents with additional needs. Covering vulnerability assessments, tailored support plans, and effective communication approaches.
PEEPs, evacuation thinking, and resident safety in occupied buildings. Practical approaches to planning and implementing effective fire evacuation strategies.
How to identify risks and prepare clear, usable safety documentation. Creating risk assessments and method statements that are proportionate, practical, and site-specific.
We can design sessions based on your organisation, building type, or operational needs. Get in touch to discuss a bespoke programme shaped around your team and context.
How We Deliver
Our training is flexible and can be adapted to suit the size, location, and needs of your organisation. We work with both small teams and larger groups across a range of formats.
Why Our Training Works
Our training is informed by direct work in housing, surveys, adaptations, and building safety. This ensures that learning is practical, relevant, and immediately applicable.
Built from hands-on work in housing, surveys, and building safety — not textbooks alone.
Real scenarios drawn from residential environments that your team will recognise.
Learning that translates directly into action — applicable from the next working day.
Whether you need a standard session or something tailored to your organisation, get in touch and we’ll discuss the best approach for your team.
