For those in the local authority sector interested in
studying for the Certificate of Higher Education in
Licensing Law (Cert HELL), funding can be raised
through increases in licence fees in areas where the
council has a discretion to set the fee level.
This is because training is part of the costs of
administering licensing schemes and councils are
entitled to recoup their administration costs.
Funding can therefore be secured through licence
fees notwithstanding pressure on training budgets in
the current financial climate.
Cert HELL is a course developed from a Working
Party convened by the Institute of Licensing, in
its earlier guise as the Local Government
Licensing Forum, to look into developing a
nationally recognised licensing qualification for local
government licensing officers.
First introduced by the School of Law at the University
of Birmingham in 2002, Cert HELL, like the
Institute, has since broadened its base
beyond local government to include other licensing
professionals, such as police licensing officers and
licensing consultants.
The course
Cert HELL, since 2007, has been offered by the
School of Law at the University of Warwick.
The Certificate, which commences in September each
year, is a part-time course studied over two years,
primarily through distance learning but with two
residential sessions each year on campus.
It
is ideally suited for licensing professionals and (like
university degrees and diplomas) provides a
nationally recognised qualification within the Higher
Education Framework for England and Wales.
It also counts for CPD purposes for those for whom
CPD points are needed such as environmental health
officers.
Between 35 and 40 students are admitted on the
course each year and experience has shown that the
course attracts a full complement of students. It is
best therefore for those interested in applying to
submit applications at an early stage whilst places
are readily available.
Applications can be submitted ahead of any decision
on employer funding which might be sought, since it
is open to applicants to decline any offer of a place or
defer entry until the following year if necessary.
