Site personnel including managers, maintenance technicians, leasing agents and others are the front line for any management company, as they are the people who come into contact the most often with  tenants and the public.

For this reason, it is important that they are properly trained and aware of Fair Housing and Accessibility requirements to ensure they appropriately meet the needs of tenants and properly represent the organization.

E&A has partnered with Scott Moore, a highly experienced fair housing attorney who has worked with clients  and organizations throughout the country on the fair housing issues that matter to them to bring this detailed and informative training.
