All
service coordinators working in HUD-assisted multifamily housing
designated for the elderly and people with disabilities must conform
to the Office
of Multifamily Housing's Training Guidelines.
These include a minimum of 36 training hours of classroom/seminar
time before hiring, OR completion of these minimum training requirements
within 12 months of initial hiring. The 36 hours MUST cover nine
specific subject areas. In addition, HUD requires that Service Coordinators
attend at least 12 hours of continuing education in each successive
year.
The Department's Training Guidelines also contain recommended coursework
for Service Coordinators working in HUD-assisted housing for families.
HUD neither approves or recommends training courses for Service
Coordinators. The Department believes that trade associations, academic
institutions, and local non-profit and public agencies can provide
the best training to Service Coordinators working in HUD-assisted
housing. Service Coordinators should choose training courses that
best provide them with the information discussed in the Training
Guidelines.
The American
Association of Service Coordinators' (AASC) website lists education
and training opportunities offered throughout the country. The search
engine of your browser can help you find education and training
opportunities for "Housing Service Coordinators".
