Property Care Association<\/a>, will give knowledge on what a competent survey procedure should involve and will set out appropriate strategies.<\/p>\nChief executive of the PCA Steve Hodgson said: \u201cThe course aims to deliver a thorough understanding of the property flood resilience survey process.<\/p>\n
\u201cManaging flood risk is far from simply identifying which products can be fitted where. It\u2019s more about assessing and evaluating every element.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s therefore vital for surveyors to assess and understand every individual scenario and this training will ensure the most appropriate strategies can be recommended to suit each homeowner, their property, their particular flood risk and their lifestyle.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve been working hard over the last six months to ensure we offer a first-class standard training programme and we believe this will prove to be invaluable.\u201d<\/p>\n
The course outlines the importance of liaising with homeowners to form comprehensive flood resistance and resilience surveys.<\/p>\n
Hodgson added: \u201cLiving with the risk of flood can bring worry, misery and numerous challenges for homeowners. When flooding occurs, it is not just the property that is affected, it is people\u2019s lives.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe course has therefore been developed to explain how personal circumstances can make some strategies more or less suitable than others.\u201d<\/p>\n
The course covers the different sources of flooding, the risks, the hierarchy of flood protection, and when to use resistance or resilience measures.<\/p>\n
The two-day training course provides four key modules:<\/p>\n
People: this will cover the impact of flooding, the history of Property Level Protection (PLP), sources of assistance available, as well as grants and insurance.<\/p>\n
Buildings: this will cover different construction and how it informs the likely performance of strategies.<\/p>\n
Products: this module will look at PAS1188\u2014flood protection products. This will include the types of product available and how they work.<\/p>\n
Training: this will be delivered as a mix of presentations, group discussions, and practical exercises. It will be carried out by flood management experts with experience in the sector.<\/p>\n
The first two-day course takes place at the PCA Practical Training Centre in Tower Square, Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire on 28-29 November.<\/p>\n
