The CIH Podcast episode two - We must SHOUT about social housing
Another incredible episode.
In our latest episode of The CIH podcast, James Prestwich, CIH director of policy and external affairs caught up with the five founding members of Social Housing Under Threat (SHOUT). Reflecting on the origin and milestones of SHOUT, Aileen Evans, Alison Inman, Colin Wiles, Tom Murtha and Martin Wheatley come together to explore what the campaign meant for the sector, along with its relevance in today’s society, almost eight years on.
Professional standards and the social housing white paper
Chaired by Crystal Hicks from CIH north east regional group we heard from Debbie Larner head of knowledge and products at Chartered Institute of Housing and Nicola Hosfield from the social housing division at MHCLG. We found out more about the new professional standards being rolled out in 2021 by CIH, and the link between the social housing white paper and the professional standards.
Areas of focus were:
- How the professional standards will support career development and how these will be fundamental to the achievement of creating a sector of professionals, as outlined as a requirement in the social housing white paper
- This event included vital information for organisation leads for professional standards and competency in Housing Associations, Local Authorities, and other providers, as well as individuals looking to quality mark their practice
