Pathways to Progress
The Unite WUL:F Project is pleased to be supporting Adult Learners Week Wales 2021
Adult Learners’ Week will take place between 20 – 26 September.
Adult Learners’ Week now in its 30th year is the biggest adult learning campaign in Wales with over 10,000 adults in Wales taking part. The aim of the campaign is to raise awareness of the value of adult learning, celebrate the achievements of inspirational people and projects and motivate people to discover just how learning can positively change their lives.
The Unite WULF Team will be hosting a wide range of FREE online courses, as well as promoting a range of offers from our training partners.

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, most of our courses have now moved online. We still have many courses to choose from; from Microsoft Teams Training to Mental Health Support to CV and Cover Letter Writing.
A survey by Unite, the UK and Ireland’s largest union, has found that workers’ concerns about their mental health have increased dramatically since the lockdown began.

The Unite Regional Learning Organiser and an Officer from the WTUC met with the company in March 2019 to outline how Unite would be able to set in place steps to support staff with a suite of employability skills workshops that would include both practical and emotional advice and guidance and help to gain access to relevant training
Redundancy isn’t about just losing your job. It is hugely challenging and can lead to loss of confidence, self-esteem and loss of social value. These cumulative effects have no doubt caused huge mental health problems as well. In light of this, one of the Union’s main roles was to act swiftly to ensure that all staff threatened with redundancy remained positive wherever possible
Read about two learners; Miriam Kisby and Lindsey Duckett who both work in Denbighshire Council North Wales, and how the online courses they attended with Unite helped them progress.
