How you’d get it

How you’d get this certificate

  1. Zavmo teaches you. You learn the units one-to-one with an AI tutor, on your own work.
  2. You register with an approved centre. That is a college, training provider or employer Awarding Body for the Built Environment has approved to offer this qualification. Zavmo is not an approved centre, so you register with them, not with us.
  3. The centre assesses, and Awarding Body for the Built Environment awards. A qualified assessor at the centre judges your evidence, and the certificate comes from Awarding Body for the Built Environment.

More on studying for a qualification

01What it is

The Level 3 Certificate develops knowledge of residential property letting and management. It covers matching properties to individuals, negotiating tenancies, and understanding relevant legislation and guidelines. Learners will also gain an understanding of health and safety and security procedures within the property letting and management environment.

These are the units Awarding Body for the Built Environment registers against this qualification. It is a catalogue, not a syllabus. Which of them you take depends on the combination the qualification requires, and that is set by the awarding body rather than by us. Every unit here is regulated. Zavmo teaches towards them on your own work, and work done here is recognised as prior learning under the agreements we hold.

Zavmo is not an awarding body, is not an approved centre, and is not affiliated with Awarding Body for the Built Environment. It does the teaching and the mapping. Awarding Body for the Built Environment sets this qualification and awards it, and a qualified human assessor makes the assessment decision.

05The credits

The credits, and who awards them

Level 3 credits are regulated, and they are awarded by Awarding Body for the Built Environment rather than by Zavmo. They don’t vanish when a subscription ends or a website closes. They travel to any employer, and Zavmo keeps the map of what you have covered and what is next.

What you would be collecting

Behave in an ethical manner in all aspects of businessKnow how to obtain instructions and agree marketing activities for propertiesUnderstand how to maintain the security of individuals and property in a property environmentUnderstand how to match and promote properties to individualsUnderstand how to negotiate tenanciesUnderstand how to progress applications to rent propertyUnderstand how to reduce risks to health and safety in the workplaceUnderstand inventories for properties to let

Each one is a real unit registered against this qualification.

How you’d practise it

You don’t watch this. You do it.

You are not assessed on remembering this. You are assessed on applying it, analysing it, evaluating it and producing something. So that is what the practice is: projects, role play and your own live cases, with a tutor in the room.

The Coach The Coach · your practice partner Illustration
The Coach You have to open the conversation in “Understand how to negotiate tenancies”. Say the first line to me, exactly as you would say it to them.
You I wanted to have a quick chat about how things have been going recently.
The Coach That is the warning shot, and they will spend it worrying. Try the version that says what this is about in the first sentence.
The same lesson on the real thing: the conversation in the middle, the thinking ladder on the left, and the criteria each answer is evidencing on the right.
  • Rehearse the conversation Apply

    “Understand how to negotiate tenancies” is a conversation before it is a document. You have it with Zavmo playing the other person, badly at first, then again once you know what you actually want to say.

  • Pitch it Evaluate

    “Know how to obtain instructions and agree marketing activities for properties” gets practised as a pitch. You make the case out loud, Zavmo asks the question the room would ask, and you make it again.
