TUC Understanding Pensions Course - (London Classroom)


My first ever pension course was provided by the TUC (a long time, long ago) But I can still remember it. I would recommend all union reps should attend such a pension course. Over the years Jonathan has been my TUC tutor on a number of occasions. 

"This course provides a basic knowledge to union reps around pensions.

Pensions are an important trade union issue. The trade union movement has consistently argued that pensions should be equitable, fair, and provide a decent living standard in retirement. Over the past 10 years the landscape of pensions has brought many changes. This course cuts across of that to provide a basic knowledge to union reps to know what these changes are and the impact on them and their members. It is also an opportunity to think about how to organise in our workplaces around this issue.

How long is the course?

This course will be delivered over 3 Thursdays in a classroom.

How much is the course?

There are no course fees for union reps from TUC affiliated unions.
