Organising To Win – a series of learning for active UNISON members.
This learning is a half day learning option in person in Bristol.
This course will look at how mapping the workplace can be a powerful tool in organising and recruitment within the workplace, and how they can inform branch strategy.
It will cover:
- Effective ways of mapping the workplace
- The difference between base organising mapping and strategic organising mapping
- UNISON’s 4 stage approach to workplace mapping
- How GDPR relates to mapping.
A new strand to our Regional Education Programme which focuses on building UNISON in workplaces, campaigning on issues and increasing our activist base.
This will for the first time, include formal regional training for workplace contacts/active members.
These pilot courses are based around UNISON’s national ‘Organising to Win’ Plan. They will cover the skills and knowledge that any UNISON activist can use to build power in the workplace and build the union.
Initially these pilot courses will be split between our Bristol and Taunton offices or held online but if successful, will be rolled out across the region in 2025.
