柠檬导航

The threat of redundancy has never been more acute for 柠檬导航 members. This course is for all branch reps & activists who are likely to be involved in challenging redundancies and/or supporting members facing redundancy.

This course is designed for reps who are actively involved or soon to be actively involved in negotiating on behalf of members. Any branch officer may also wish to attend this course to understand the fundamentals or negotiating strategy, member support and organising around demands.

This course is aimed at new reps/caseworkers and activists who will be undertaking the role in the near future. Existing reps who have not attended training before are also encouraged to attend. The course will cover all aspects of your role as a rep including your rights as a rep, union democracy, recruitment, organising and communication. You should complete this course prior to applying for the Rep 2 course.

This course is for reps who have completed 柠檬导航's Rep 1 course (H&S1, Equality or ULR 1 & 2 or 柠檬导航's) or our introduction to case work and are now actively engaged in representing individual members. The course also assumes you are actively engaged with your branch, and fully understand 柠檬导航's democratic structures both in the branch and nationally. Although the course focuses on grievance and disciplinary processes, it will also cover collective action, organising and equality.

This one day course will introduce you to the role and functions of a 柠檬导航 learning rep. This is a unique role within a branch and one which allows you to work with members to ensure professional development and life long learning are recognised by the employer. This course will help you understand the legislation that underpins the role and how you can develop the role in your branch and begin to negotiate for improvements and parity for all.

This course is for branch union learning reps or those reps and activists interested in finding out more about negotiating effective and inclusive learning agreements. The course will assume you have some knowledge around the bargaining structure in your institution.
