On the 19 January 2004 UNISON held their
first course exclusively for LAS stewards. It was a resounding success
with everyone stating that courses with ambulance staff only were
better. The course was run in association with the WEA (Workers
Educational Association) in Luke Street, EC2 which most people agreed
was an ideal central location.
For some learners it was the first time they had ever used a computer
and this course had taught them to browse the web, send & receive
e-mails and other functions that will enable them to carry out their
trade union duties more effectively. Everyone was looking forward to the
next step.It is hoped that we could run more courses, such as the
introductory steward and introductory health & safety exclusively for
new LAS representatives and we are looking in to offering computer
courses to all UNISON members as well as we are firmly committed to
modern information technology and believe all our members should know
how they can access the internet and use e-mail. |
