Specialist Workshops
Specialist Workshops are run for a limited number of delegates at various locations across the UK throughout the year. The Workshops offer intensive practical and theoretical training, combined with the added benefit of knowledge and experience sharing with fellow professionals and guest keynote speakers. Examples of our current Specialist Workshops are:
- CIL Administration – a comprehensive training workshop for front-line CIL officers, covering essential operational skills such as pre-application recording, calculations, notices, monitoring, enforcement, appeals, internal protocols, finance and reporting. This two-day course is vital for anyone considering or using the CIL Administrator software package.
- Section 106 Co-ordination – a complete S106 overview covering key topics such as negotiating agreements, policy frameworks, discharging covenants, enforcement and injunctions, variations and supplementary agreements and financial protocols. This two day course is ideal for new recruits, or experienced S106 Officers seeking to improve existing systems.
- The Developer’s Perspective – the administrative and financial implications of CIL and S106 are enormous for developers, from small local companies to big national corporations alike. This one day workshop is designed to help developers understand key policies, practices and procedures, and work with Local Authorities to get the best out of the current legislative framework.
Tailored Training
Individual consultation and bespoke training can also be provided on CIL and S106 for public and private sector organisations alike. The Tailored Training option provides complete flexibility, enabling you to customise your package of support according to your own requirements, preferences and budget.
