Training from Positive Action in Housing 2021-22 Click here for booking details Hi there! Season's Greetings! I hope you're keeping well. As we make plans for the holidays and think about plans for the New Year, here's a reminder of our training - a great way to spend your training budget and support our humanitarian work. We're sticking with our training courses on Zoom for the time being and hoping that we'll be able to see people face-to-face later in 2022. We'd love you to join in, learn and share your knowledge with colleagues from around the country. Our Migrants Rights courses are continuing to run on Zoom as two and a half hour open courses or in-house if you prefer . If you're providing housing or other services to EEA nationals, there have been significant changes over the last six months you need to know about. Understanding access to social security and housing will be more difficult again for many EEA nationals and those providing support and services - our "Rights and Entitlements of EEA Nationals" session is fully updated with the latest important changes in rights, policy and case-law. As the biggest changes to law and policy affecting refugees for decades approach, it's essential service providers know what this means for people going through the asylum system and settling as refugees. Access to public funds will change dramatically for many refugees making successful settlement more difficult than ever. Our "Rights of Refugees and Asylum Seekers" session gives you an overview of the asylum process and insights into the pressures of going through a system designed to isolate and marginalise. As Covid cases rise again and the economy struggling with no furlough scheme or "everyone-in" in place, people with no recourse to public funds are again facing poverty, homelessness and destitution. Our "No Recourse to Public Funds" session helps you recognise people's status and understand what assistance is available when public funds aren't. Our Equality and Diversity courses are running as four hour in-house sessions on Zoom, split into two parts on consecutive afternoons. Full of challenging ideas, brilliant insights and useful information, they are highly participative and can change the way you think about equality and diversity personally and as a business. There are four flavours, all will leave you wanting to find out more: - Equality and Diversity in Service Delivery
- Equality and Diversity in the Workplace
- Interpreting Culture
- Communicating Through Interpreters
