The ESC Damp and Mould Assessor pathway is a set of three courses for housing staff, property professionals, surveyors and specialist investigators.
Start with Level 1 awareness, choose one Level 2 course in either residential housing or traditional and historic buildings, then progress to the Ofqual-regulated Level 3 Award. Together, the three levels form one complete training pathway.
