Unionlearn Supporting Learners Event Video - Northern Region Workplace Learning was the topic of the day at a very successful unionlearn* event held at Ramside Hall, County Durham, in conjunction with the Learning and Skills Council North east. With well over 100 delegates in attendance the Supporting Learners event looked at how programmes such as Train to gain and next step can help employers to make a commitment to skills development for the benefit of their employees and their business. The event also highlighted the complementary and increasingly important role trade unions play in ensuring workers in the region have access to high quality support when embarking on any kind of personal or professional development.
