This three day course is designed for union reps and Union Learning Reps to enhance knowledge and understanding of the link between learning and organising. It aims to develop a coherent approach to integrating organising into learning activities. The course will also:
- analyse the characteristics that underpin successful and robust learning and organising initiatives
- examine the way in which learning can be used to raise the union profile at the workplace
- identify how to use the learning agenda to make unions more attractive to non-members and rejuvenate existing members
- examine the role reps can play in strengthening workplace organisation and the recruitment of new members
- formulate an action plan to develop and strengthen workplace learning projects to maximise opportunities for union growth and renewal.
