In these difficult times, trade unions are defending jobs up and down the country. The power of mentoring in enabling individuals to maintain and retain their apprenticeship is well known. Trade union representatives have a key role in not only supporting mentoring initiatives but also becoming mentors themselves.Join UnionLearn on this webinar to learn about the best way trade unions can support apprentices in these difficult times and more importantly how you can make a difference.  

Join Mark Rowe from UnionLearn in discussion with Dr Gail Hebson, Hon Senior Lecturer from Manchester University who recently published a research paper on “Exploring employees’ experiences of job quality in the hospitality and catering sector following the introduction of a new apprenticeship programme”. We will also be joined by Damian Holohan, Senior Shop Steward at Westinghouse where he is instrumental in developing a mentoring support network for apprentices in the nuclear industry. During the discussion you will be able to tell us your stories of support and share best practice.
