Training

Why Train with Support Solutions?

We enjoy training and, as with most things in life, you're good at doing the things you enjoy. However, that alone is not enough. As a consultancy firm one of our key objectives is the development of thinking within the sector. We do this through our consultancy work, through the publication of The Briefing and through the research for and delivery of our training events.

Everyone who trains for Support Solutions will have been trained in presentation and delivery skills and will have a thorough grasp of the issues upon which they train.

We run "open" events across the UK on topics of strategic importance for people involved in housing support & social care and we also provide tailor-made "in-house" events for individual organisations and locally based events for groups of service providers and/or commissioners. Our recent events include:

• The Personalisation Agenda
• Local Area Agreements
• Tendering & Procurement
• Local Housing Allowance & Housing Benefit
• Outcomes Measurement
• The Refreshed QAF

What our clients think of what we do matters greatly to us. We take a lot of care to:

• Select the right venue and event layout
• Prepare course materials and ongoing learning resources
• Anticipate different learning styles
• Specify the outcomes for each event
• Keep costs down without impacting on quality
• Identify and meet mobility, dietary and other requirements
