Passport to Learning

If you have recently become a UNISON Steward, Health & Safety Rep, or Union Learner Rep then you’re probably feeling slightly anxious about what you have let yourself in for. Don’t panic! UNISON education and training is here to help you develop the knowledge, skills and confidence you will need in your new role. The Passport to Learning scheme gives all Reps a clear programme of training which is easy to follow and can be done at a pace to suit each individual.

One Step Ahead | Download the 2010 programme ( includes dates and application form)

This is a lively new education course aimed at keeping experienced hands one step ahead. One Step Ahead is a comprehensive programme that values and builds on the experiences you bring and gives you the opportunity to meet other reps from your branch and other branches to share experiences, reflect on work practices and think about what works, what doesn’t and why. This is a new approach to activism that’s focused around organising in the branch.
