Climbing Frame
An electronic tool to help learners and promote
learning in the workplace
The union learning Climbing Frame is an
easy-to-use electronic tool which allows
learning reps to create pathways of
learning and action plans for individuals
that can be reviewed and updated as
they progress on their learning journey.
It provides up-to-date information
and advice for ULRs about a broad range
of learning opportunities, and also allows
individual unions to adapt it to their
own needs.
In addition, ULRs can keep ongoing records
of who they’re working with and where
they’re heading, while unions can generate
accurate profiles of their own learners. It is set to make life a lot easier for ULRs
and is certain to help promote the idea of
learning in the workplace.
