The Northern TUC unionlearn Learning for All Fund 2008

Guidelines The Northern TUC unionlearn* Learning for All Programme offers a unique, high quality, strategic and operational support service to trade unions wishing to run workplace learning projects to generate and increase learner demand.

This is achieved through providing a resource to cover the cost of Union Learning Representative activity (adding value to local 'facility-time' agreements) in workplaces across the North East. The aim of the Learning for All Fund is to increase the number of adults engaging in learning and training in the region through specific focused ULR* activity. The Fund helps Union Learning Representatives to play a more effective and influential role in raising the demand for learning, particularly amongst hard to reach potential learners.

What is the LfAF for?

The LfAF is a resource into which trade unions bid for funding to run workplace learning initiatives. This funding provides secondment costs to cover ULR time on a project and essential resources and materials.

Who can submit a bid?

Bids should be submitted by a trade union full-time official and should identify clearly how the proposed project will meet some or all of the objectives of the LfAF . Bids to the Fund must be Trade Union led, but can be made up of partnerships, including joint bids representing Unions, works councils, employers and other stakeholders.
