Monmouthshire Housing Association (MHA) has been working with tenants to develop a new accredited training programme called Passport to Engagement.

The programme has been developed in response to MHA’s tenant volunteers, who help the association to continually improve services and make their local areas better places to live.

The tenants said that they wanted more training based around developing in their volunteering roles.

The new programme is made up of six entry level three units, which can be undertaken individually or altogether to achieve the full award. The programme can also help tenants who are looking to enhance their CV and find employment.

Rob Carey, MHA’s Tenant and Resident Involvement Coordinator said, “We believe that the best results begin with volunteers understanding the issues in which they are involved and building their confidence so that they can talk about their views without difficulty. We believe that the new training programme, which has been developed with the tenants, helps to achieve this.”
