Teesside University

Closing date: noon Tuesday 15 August

Date: Tuesday 22 and Wednesday 23 August
Time: 9:30-16:30

This course is aimed at reps within Higher Education but open to reps from other branches.

Overview

Every five years UNISON expects our reps to participate in a training course during which you will have the opportunity to learn about the new requirements, processes, legal changes and organising initiatives which are happening across the union. This is an opportunity for you to step outside of your current practice and reflect on what works for you as a UNISON rep and what you find to be the more challenging parts of the role. The course is designed for you to discover new initiatives, share your experiences with other reps and to plan for how we build a strong union which can withstand the pressures put upon us in these tough times.

Aims

  • To update UNISON reps on new developments internally and externally which impact upon your role as a UNISON rep
  • To inform you on various changes in the legislative and legal framework which affect our role in representation and organising at local level
  • To share our skills and experience to further develop our approach as UNISON reps.
  • To explore how we build the strength of UNISON in a changing industrial relations environment.
  • To consider how to utilise your skills and experience to encourage and mentor new UNISON reps.
  • To plan more personal development opportunities in your role as a UNISON rep.
