star this property answer text <p>Following successful pilots of the ‘Trusted Partner’ scheme and the ‘Landlord Portal Service’, DWP are rolling out both initiatives together. We are enrolling more landlords in stages, in tandem with the expansion of the Universal Credit Full Service. We have started with the largest landlord groups, in order to ensure the highest possible number of tenants are able to benefit from the schemes, as early as possible. This means that all Trusted Partner landlords have access to the Landlord Portal. We have also already introduced this to the landlords involved in our Trusted Partner pilot.</p><p> </p><p>The Trusted Partner scheme allows social landlords to play a key role in engaging with their tenants who are Universal Credit claimants, helping those who can’t manage their housing payments to access the support available. The Landlord Portal provides social landlords with the ability to submit information directly to the Universal Credit online system, which supports timely and accurate payment of housing costs to Universal Credit claimants.</p>

star this property answer text <p>The Universal Credit Full Service was expanded to an additional 29 Jobcentre sites in July and rollout will continue this month, with new claims and changes of circumstance reported online in the vast majority of all cases. All customers have an online account, online statement and journal for interacting with their dedicated Case Manager and Work Coach.</p><p> </p><p>We endeavour to resolve all enquiries from our customers at the point of contact, whether that be face-to-face, online, or on the phone. The percentage of calls being received as a proportion of our total caseload has been steadily falling this year, as customers interact more online, and we will continue to invest to make more functionality available online – for example, customers can now update their Claimant Commitments online before and after their meetings with the Work Coach, helping record job search as customers take the next steps forward into work.</p><p> </p><p>Every week we match the required capacity and resources to our telephony forecast to ensure we meet demand and deliver a good service across our channels. This capacity is organised to scale up in line with new claims as the service expands further to ensure a good customer service and experience.</p>

Work coaches receive a blend of face-to-face and online learning, which focuses on both the technical delivery steps and importantly the transformational change, as well as consolidation of training post-completion.</p><p> </p><p>Accreditation is also core to establishing our Work Coaches as an externally recognised professional workforce, and is central to our commitment to their continuous professional development. The learning and accreditation for Work Coaches reflects the critical role they play in the successful delivery of Universal Credit. However, we are not complacent and are investing in our people at all levels to give them the skills, knowledge and tools to deliver.</p><p> </p><p>The Universal Credit Full Service has a training feature that allows our staff to experience the system. Feedback from staff on the training has been positive, particularly the ability to experience the system before their jobcentre goes live with the full service.</p>
