Fringe meetings provide a great forum to discuss and learn about topics that aren't on the formal Conference agenda.  There are two fringe meetings taking place today, Thursday 16th May. They are:

• Have you joined your union yet? Key recruitment lessons in The Brehon 2

Last year was an extraordinary year for membership growth. The Membership Unit invites you to join us to celebrate the work of our branches and divisions about how we’re about to take things to the next level in 2024 and beyond! Click here for more details.

• The Skills Academy mentoring programme launch in The Brehon Suite

The Fórsa Skills Academy are excited to announce the launch of our new Mentoring Programme. After a short pilot which ran from February to April this year, the programme will be officially launched at this fringe event, chaired by Helen Sheridan, vice president and chair of the training subcommittee.

Join us to hear from mentors and mentees share their experiences. Speakers with outline future plans for the programme, as well as explaining how branches and workplace representatives can participate in it.

Both fringe meetings take place in The Brehon hotel, which is located next door to the INEC where conference is taking place, and lunch will be provided for attendees.
