Regeneration FdSc/BSc (Hons) Housing Practice
“I chose the Foundation degree in Housing Practice as it was ideally matched to my role in housing, allowing me to gain a deeper understanding and knowledge of the housing world in order to become more effective. Sharing this knowledge with colleagues and putting learning into practice has been beneficial to myself and my employer.
I was very successful in the HNC I studied previously at Salford and gained recognition from the University and the CIH for outstanding achievement. The Foundation degree has been challenging at times but I have learned to manage my time effectively in order to balance work, study and family life.
The final year of the Foundation degree has incorporated a work- based professional project on void and ready to let properties. This has given me the opportunity to project manage, introduce changes in the working practices and carry out benchmarking to improve performance whilst raising my profile.”
