Both directors have substantial experience of delivering housing training. Andrew and Peter have written nationally delivered training courses on a range of housing topics, have spoken at conferences and are well-respected speakers. Andrew Lavender | Peter Wilson In addition to the two directors, Lavender & Wilson also draw upon a range of other trainers to deliver specialist training in areas such as gas safety, electrical safety, asbestos, advocacy, preparing prosecutions, mental capacity etc. When delegates attend a housing training course, they want the day to be enjoyable but their main aim is to learn.
We pride ourselves on the quality of our training – our courses are interactive and enjoyable but people also learn a great deal. Extensive manuals are given out with our courses for delegates to use for reference later and we go to great lengths to ensure that information is up to date and relevant. We offer a broad range of courses but will always prepare bespoke housing training days tailored to the specific needs of individual clients, as required. Our aim is always to ensure that people leave at the end of the day satisfied that the course has been worthwhile and have met their needs.

- Housing Health and Safety Rating System – Social Landlords
