Learnwithunite is Unite’s own learning environment, we have a vast amount of experience and knowledge in identifying and developing flexible learning opportunities for members and potential members, enabling them to embark on a learning journey of their choice. 

Our highly motivated team has worked closely with union learning representatives over the years, creating robust relationships with employers and education providers, thousands of members have been able to increase their personal skills and qualifications through a range of courses, increasing their employability long term.

In parallel with education opportunities being offered to working people, we also focus on bringing their skills and knowledge to use within the community. This enables more people to access education through flexible programmes, breaking down barriers to learning and helping local communities to develop new skills. 

Learnwithunite offers a wide range of services within the North West from very short bite sized tasters, through to full qualifications, everything from brushing up your English skills, through to designing your first website. One of our aims is to recruit Union Learning Reps in the workplace and once trained by Unite, we can organise and promote learning opportunities within your workplace.
