Industry partnership offers courses for lettings agents

The Tenancy Deposit Scheme and industry supplier Inventory Hive are working together to provide two new training courses. 

Led by Michael Hill of TDS and Richard Abbots of Inventory Hive, the courses guide property professionals through reporting at each stage of a tenancy. 

The first - named Pre-Tenancy Activity and Inventory Check-In - includes an introduction to inventory check-ins and practical tips for compiling reports.  The session focuses on key vocabulary and what to include in an inventory report.   

The second - named Mid-Term Visits and End of Tenancy Check-Out - includes practical guidance on undertaking reports, alongside how reports are approached by an adjudicator when considering deposit deductions.   

Alongside these two courses, TDS also runs TDS Academy Online, with places available for later this month. 

Delegates who complete both TDS Academy Online courses and TDS X Inventory Hive courses will be awarded with the new TDS Approved Academy Accreditation Logo, valid for 18 months. 

“Ensuring that property professionals knowledge net is as wide as it can possibly be is something us and Inventory Hive value greatly. Having a core skillset and understanding of the ever-changing worlds that are tenancy deposit protection and inventories can be the key to avoiding costly deposit disputes” says Michael Hill.
