The Fórsa Skills Academy is kicking off series of online training sessions later this month, providing information and guidance across a range of topics of interest and benefit to members, activists, and representatives.

‘Lunch and Learn’ aims to give members the knowledge to support them as a union member or representative whilst supplementing the broad range of training programmes currently being offered by Skills Academy. The virtual sessions will take place on the last Friday of very month from 1pm – 2pm, exploring different topics. Whilst these sessions are predominantly for information, there will be opportunities for participants to ask questions via the chat function.

The inaugural Lunch and Learn will kick off on Friday 27^th January from 1-2pm, covering the why and how of union motions.This session will explain what a motion is, its function and importance to workplace democracy.  It will also explain how to construct a motion and the journey it takes from an idea to its implementation, clarifying some associated jargon along the way.
