Housing Traineeships

ARE YOU FROM A BLACK AND MINORITY ETHNIC COMMUNITY AND SEEKING A CAREER IN SOCIAL HOUSING?
WHY NOT TURN TO PATH (SCOTLAND) 

The Organisation

PATH (Scotland) offers a thirty-six month Positive Action Training Scheme, which has been specifically designed to redress the under-representation of black and minority ethnic communities in employment in Scottish Housing.  PATH works in collaboration with Local Authority Housing Departments and Registered Social Landlords across Scotland to provide our housing training opportunities.

The Training Involves:

Thirty-six months work experience / specialist qualifications and professional membership / training allowance (£9,500 in year one, £10,500 in year two, £12,000 in year three).   This allowance is exempt from tax and national insurance.

At the end of the programme, trainees can compete for jobs in Scottish Housing.

Applicants should:

• Be from a BME background and committed to a career in Housing
• Have effective verbal, written and IT skills
• Be willing to undertake a demanding training and study programme over thirty-six months – 4 days work experience (between Monday and Friday) / 1 additional day attendance at college or university during the academic year.

This scheme is promoted under section 158 of the Equality Act 2010 and is currently supported by The Scottish Government and Local Authorities and Housing Associations across Scotland.
