We discussed the issues that unite accredited representatives (ARs) across the British Isles. As we already knew each other for this session, we were able to work together comfortably and effectively, sharing a wider understanding of the workforce challenges that affect us all.
A look back at the first session
In the introductory session we studied a range of organisational strategies that lead to positive change and learned about trade union legislation. We also explored the structure of where members sit in an organisation and how to encourage colleagues to become members.
We started the second module looking back at our achievements in supporting our members and colleagues in our workplaces. It was clear how much our confidence as representatives has grown and the positive impact we have made in such a short time.
