We have launched a new online training course to help those responsible for managing high-rise residential buildings understand their legal duties under the Building Safety Act 2022, in partnership with the Building Safety Regulator (BSR).
Access the free training here.
The free eLearning programme is aimed at volunteer directors of Right to Manage (RTM) and Resident Management Companies (RMCs) in England. It uses clear language and practical examples to explain the responsibilities introduced after the Grenfell Tower tragedy.
The training is split into four 30-minute modules covering key topics:
- Preparing for the new building safety regime, including the ‘Golden Thread’
- Managing fire and structural safety risks
- Resident engagement, mandatory reporting, and complaints
- The Building Assessment Certificate process
Ella Norman, Senior Legal Advisor at LEASE, said:
“Many leaseholders volunteer to help manage their buildings without formal training but now face significant legal responsibilities. This course gives them the knowledge and confidence to meet their duties and keep their buildings safe.”
The programme is also relevant for freeholders, managing agents, housing associations, local authorities, professional Building Safety Managers, and leaseholders who want to understand how safety measures are managed and charged for.
