Divisions plan quality training for active reps
Members and reps will have a wealth of training courses to choose from in 2004 as divisions organise their schedule for the year ahead.

Other courses for reps in the industrial sectors will also be arranged. Further details are available from deputy divisional officer John Radigan at Leeds (0113 202 6000).
