Our virtual steward course delivers the same learning outcomes as the face-to-face Stage 1 + Stage 2 workplace representatives course combination.

This course looks at what the roles of the steward are and gives you the skills, knowledge and understanding to carry out these roles, for example recruiting members and involving them in the union and how to work with members to tackle problems at work.

  • Recruiting members
  • Keeping members informed
  • How to raise issues in UNISON
  • Proportionality and fair representation
  • Interviewing members
  • Understanding your grievance and disciplinary procedures.

This course will be accredited through East Riding College.  This course is 30 hours learning in total.

Due to the current lockdown measures UNISON is unable to send out hard copies of the online resources however these will be available to download and view via a padlet.
