UNISON Northern Ireland

Union Learning Rep (Day 1)

Event Date: 
24 Aug 2018 - 10:00 to 16:00

UNISON Belfast 

This is a three day course for all Branch Education Officers, and for members who would like to help promote learning within their workplaces.  Ideally, each branch should aim to have 3-4 ULRs working with the Education Officer to have an education team.  Being a ULR, entitles you to statutory time off which benefit your members, and the branch.
Please encourage members you are aware of to apply, who you think might make a good ULR, to work alongside you.  If you have not already completed this course, it is really important that you do as this will give you really useful skills and knowledge to take back to your branch and workplace.
UNISON has a great learning offer for members to support them personally and professionally.
You don’t have to be a steward to become a Union Learning Rep.
The course will look at learning styles, barriers to learning, dyslexia, learning as an organising and recruitment tool and developing learning partnerships with employers.
It is accredited by SERC (South Eastern Regional College).
