UNA Workshops
Any member wanting to get more active in UNA can get a good head start through one of the UNA provincial education workshops. Run by UNA’s Education Officer, Tim Gough, the full-day workshops provide a wealth of information and hands on experience with some of the practical skills.
“It’s a lot of fun getting nurses from several different Locals together to talk and learn about different aspects of running the union,” Tim says.
Additional workshops may be added if necessary, if you are unable to attend the workshops currently scheduled. Please call to have your name added to the waiting list and additional dates may be scheduled to meet the demand.
