At The Fair Housing Institute, we are dedicated to providing the most thorough and comprehensive fair housing training at the best price to you and your company or organization. However, we realize that training is not a one size fits all scenario. That is why we have developed multiple training solutions so our clients can choose which type of training best fits their needs. Please contact us with your questions, or to setup a no-obligation consultation.
Conference Training (Minimum 10 users)
Our conference training method is one of our newest additions to our catalog of training options. It utilizes our online comprehensive and interactive training course “The Basics of Fair Housing” in a conference style environment. The Fair Housing Institute Inc. can provide your company a single seat that can educate many employees all at once. Simply by using a device with web browsing capability, projector, and audio capability your employees can move through the training course step by step and discuss the lessons as a group. As the course takes around 3 to 4 hours to complete, this can be done in a single session or spaced out between several sessions. The Fair Housing Institute Inc. will provide printout versions of the reviews and the answer keys. At the end of each lesson, the reviews allow your employees to test their knowledge and find out what information they may need to review again. We will provide a printed version of the certification test that your employees can take at the end of the course. We require that your employees score at least 80% on the certification test in order to receive a certificate of completed training from The Fair Housing Institute Inc. Your company may prefer to require that its employees achieve a higher standard.
There are several benefits to this training method. Since all the employees can be trained at once, meeting training deadlines become much less of a problem for management to supervise. It also allows management to directly monitor your employees’ progress and knowledge. Management can now directly supervise employee participation to ensure that the employees are absorbing the information and taking the training seriously.

Webinars
Webinars are becoming a popular method of training. It allows companies and organizations to train an unlimited number of employees right from their office desk. Webinars are ideal for topic-specific training and for companies with offices spread over a wide geographic area making classroom training a very expensive option. Webinars can be presented live and also recorded for later viewing; recorded webinars are ideal for bringing new employees up to speed.
Our webinar training is also delivered by our principals, in an individual or panel format, depending on your needs and the topics to be covered. Whatever the specific topics your company requires, Ms. Kitay, Ms. Williams, and Mr. Chasick can provide comprehensive training including research and case studies if needed.
While the 60 minutes is generally considered to be the ideal length of a webinar, we can create training webinars of longer – or shorter – duration. These webinars can be scheduled at your convenience to meet the needs of your company and its employees. We work alongside management and ownership to make sure that all the topics of interest are being thoroughly covered and to ensure that your company is receiving the customized training experience you desire.
