Rent Smart Wales is responsible for implementation of Part 1 of the Housing (Wales) Act 2014. The purpose of the legislation is to require private landlords to register and either become licensed or appoint another person/company to hold the licence on their behalf. Part of the licensing requirements require licence holders to have completed approved training. This training provides landlords or agents that manage properties in Wales with relevant, up-to-date information and professional development opportunities in order to successfully manage tenancies within the law.
It is essential that the training provider will have the relevant qualifications and experience of the private rented sector to deliver training across the whole of Wales. Rent Smart Wales will require a competent training provider to deliver course material confidently and engagingly in order to positively engage with landlords and agents. Paramount is the ability of the trainer to quickly gain the respect of delegates, which will require a good understanding of the pressures and challenges facing landlords and agents.
Rent Smart Wales are looking to appoint a training provider with the essential experience and qualifications to carry out the approved training to licensed landlords across the whole of Wales.
