Aims

The aim of the course is for delegates to understand the basics of the benefit system; to know what information is required if their client needs a benefit check or believes an award or decision is incorrect, and how to structure an interview.

  • The key interviewing skills for an adviser
  • Exploring the issue with the client
  • Gathering information required for full benefits advice
  • Exploring the client’s options, what actions they are able to take for themselves and what further support they will need from an adviser
