Fórsa is inviting eligible members and activists 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.

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.

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

The closing date for applications is Friday 28th September 2018.

Full details of the application requirements and available support are available here.

The approved application form is available here.
