Evans Jones has launched a new access auditor training course designed to give candidates a sound basis for a career in access auditing. The course covers:

• The Disability Discrimination Acts 1995 and 2005
• What constitutes a reasonable adjustment?
• Planning, conservation area and listed building consents – when are they required?
• Other relevant legislation: building regulations, highways, health and safety etc
• Professional matters: insurance, ethics, taking instructions
• Building design features – what is good practice?
• Practical access audit exercise

The course develops to undertake an access audit of all elements of a property, including its management and maintenance, using simple survey tools. Participants will be encouraged to produce their own access audit at the end of the course which will be reviewed by one of the trainers and NRAC consultants following completion.

Course duration: 2 days
Cost: £500 + VAT per person
Date: 1 & 2 October 2008
