This two-hour workshop is for all reps, whether new or established. The course will introduce you to some key ideas, skills and knowledge on which you will build throughout the reps’ programme. The aim of this workshop is for you to learn more about the NUJ, how chapels and branches are established and work, who your members are, and how to become more involved in NUJ democracy.
All new reps will be invited to complete this workshop before attending any other reps’ training.
