Fórsa is inviting members to apply to its third-level grant support scheme, which gives limited financial assistance to those undertaking certified educational courses – up to third level – that will assist them in carrying out their union representative role.

Applicants, who must be fully paid-up Fórsa members, can only apply by completing the approved application form. They must also have the support of their own Fórsa branch.

The scheme does not cover courses designed to enhance professional or career development unless they also improve a member’s ability to act as a Fórsa rep. The closing date for applications is 5.30pm on Friday 27th September 2019.

Full details of the application requirements and available supports can be found HERE.

The approved application form is available HERE.
