Lifelong Learning: Opportunity knocks In the North West
The CWU has 10 learning centres and has trained over 100 Union Learning
Representatives in the North West with more to come, is your Branch
involved? No? If you would like to be involved read on.
Learning in the North West
CWU have a number of partnership agreements with local colleges that
enables us to offer a wide range of courses, mostly free, to all our
members. If you are interested in taking a course please click on your
Branch page in the sidebar and click courses at the top of the page to
see what is currently on offer. If your Branch is not listed please
contact me for information and the location of your nearest Learning
Centre.
As your regional project worker I would be more than happy to come along
to your Branch meetings and explain the advantages of being involved in
the project. I can explain the role and responsibilities of ULRs,
arrange for ULR training courses, help you prepare an action plan to
present to your manager, and go through the issues and explain the
importance of Lifelong Learning & Essential Skills in the workplace. An
important aspect of our work is to give our members good quality,
Information, Advice and Guidance (IAG) we can help ULRs access the
training and qualification to do this.
All the North West Learning Centres achieved the prestigious Matrix
accreditation in March 2010
