UNISON is working in partnership with the County Council to promote the Workplace Learning Scheme. This has been set up as a result of the Government’s commitment to workforce training and development, and the latest Employment Act gives UNISON Workplace Learning Advisors a number of statutory rights to time off for training and duties. However, we do need many more volunteers. The aim of this joint initiative with the County Council is to promote learning in the workplace by

• encouraging colleagues, helping to make learning an option for everyone
• raising awareness of learning opportunities
• offering guidance about routes into training and development

· assisting with enrolments and award events · helping to identify gaps in provision and ways to deliver learning in a style and at a pace to suit learners. · encouraging demand for learning from within the workplace Regular meetings are held and the Branch is on hand to offer support and guidance when needed. If you would like any further information on this very worthwhile role please get in touch with Jane Barnes on (01245) 354044. We look forward to hearing from you!
