Training

“ASAP has been invaluable to us, we cannot praise you enough.”
- feedback from one of the organisations who attended our training

Asylum Support Appeals Project (ASAP) offers training on all aspect of asylum support (NASS) including asylum support appeals (NASS appeals) so that other advisors can also prevent asylum seekers from becoming destitute.

Priority is given to refugee community organisations but training is also available to those in the voluntary sector who are advising asylum seekers on asylum support related issues. For more information on becoming a member, please click here.

The courses we offer range from a basic introduction to asylum support, right through to more complex training on issues such as how to conduct an appeal at the Asylum Support Tribunal (AST). These are appeals against BIA’ decision to either remove support when someone is still an asylum seeker, or to refuse them support when they first apply. This includes section 4 support.
