Unite Education course enrolment

It’s extremely important that you read the information given below.

All course bookings will be made on a ‘first come first served basis’. Before applying for a course please ensure that your Regional Officer has been notified of your election/union position as this helps to alleviate any problems which may delay your application. Once we have received your application form we will confirm in writing whether or not you have been allocated a course place. It is up to you to secure your paid release. Employment legislation entitles you to payment of wages etc. for training you undertake that is connected with your trade union ‘duties’ (negotiating, representing people etc.), however, if you have been told by your employer that you will not receive paid release, you must raise the issue with your regional officer before you attend the course. Unite Education is not responsible for obtaining your paid release.
