Dear Colleagues

Representatives/Activists One Day Training

The RMT are arranging local courses for all reps and activists for recruitment/retention and mapping.

The courses will be run local to branches in the London Transport region and are for 1 day.

All reps should try to attend as we believe this course offers local reps guide and assistance on managing members in their areas and can aid in improving recruitment.
