Landlord Law Blog roundup from 1 July

July 7, 2013 by Tessa J Shepperson

Doing the quizI wrote a while back about the new CPD service I am thinking of developing.  I have now worked out how to do this and hope to be posting a CPD multiple choice quiz in the next few days.

I have made enquiries and understand that this will be acceptable to ARLA for CPD for ARLA members.  It should also qualify for CPD for any landlords who are a member of the UK Landlords Accreditation partnership – (for the continuing CPD only, not the CPD needed for the initial qualification).

I suspect it will also satisfy most other landlord and tenant regulation organisations CPD requirements – if you want me to make enquiries about YOUR CPD scheme let me know.

But what happened on the blog?
