Lunch and Learn is Fórsa’s monthly in-house online webinar series delivered by the Skills Academy team. With the union’s biennial conference hurtling down the tracks in May, the upcoming Lunch and Learn session on Friday 22nd March will take the shape of a conference guide, exploring topics like standing orders and elections. Fórsa National Secretary Linda Kelly will lead the session.

Standing orders are a set of guidelines and rules that dictate how a meeting is conducted. Linda will walk attendees through how standing orders work at conference and will explain the voting processes within Fórsa. This is session is not to be missed by new branch executive committee members and first-time conference delegates.

Moreover, for those who missed it, the Skills Academy team have made available a previous online Lunch and Learn session featuring communications consultant Pat Montague. Pat is renowned for his expertise in driving progressive change in Ireland and is a staunch ally of trade unions. His session focuses on the art and craft of public speaking for AGMs and conferences.

While these sessions are open to all members, we kindly request interested individuals to register in advance. This ensures that the link to join is received on time and facilitates a smooth experience for all participants.

The closing date to register for the next ‘A Guide To Conference’ session with Linda Kelly is Thursday, 21st March at 13:00.   The webinar on public speaking with Pat Montague can be viewed here.
