Tenancy & Independent Living Skills Plus (TILS+)


Tenancy & Independent Living Skills Plus (TILS+)

There are so many benefits to asking an outside organisation to deliver your TILS+ training, not least:

  1. We are independent and engagement is our strength – we will even work with your teams to develop an Engagement Strategy to overcome barriers to engagement and great outcomes
  2. There are up to thirty-two modules to choose from – from debt, banking, to housing options and responsibilities, APR and building empathy to get on with the neighbours
  3. We will design with you a safe referral pathway including your own online referral link
  4. We provide all the resources
  5. We organise the venues, refreshments and staffing
  6. There’s no Powerpoint and almost no writing – it’s inclusive, games-based, visual and creative
  7. Groups are no more than eight in size
  8. It’s in a location that works for the trainees
  9. There’s a final certificate 
  10. We offer final outcomes reports
  11. We provide highly skilled and DBS checked trainers

Does it work? We can proudly report:

– 99% retention on our courses.
– 87% of trainees with increased tenancy skills
– 61% feel more confident as tenants
– 82% report having increased understanding about their bills
– 72% have increased knowledge of how to be a good tenant

And a quote: ‘I would recommend this course to everyone. It was much more fun that thought it would be and I won’t be getting into debt now’.

What’s it really like?

Watch our film, made by the experts, to find out what the training is REALLY like.

  • Retention on our TILS courses nudges 100%!  This is because of how we work. It’s unlike any course they’ve ever been on – tiny groups, no writing, often no desks at all, up and about on their feet, games, fun and a lot of laughter.  
  • All facilitated using PinPoint facilitation.

There are 24 core modules to choose from

Below are the 24 designed TILS+ modules to choose from.  We can take additional commissions for new modules also.
