Catching up!

It has been a long time since I last posted on here. My job now takes me away from rail workers as I now work in the maritime section of RMT Learning (I am the maritime section!).However, I travel around the country a great deal attending various events and meetings and in doing so I have met lots and lots of new ULRs.
I started in all this with Southeastern many years ago and since then have seen the learning agenda go from a small project that was initially viewed with suspicion or totally ignored to the undoubted success that it is today. It is fabulous to see that Rulers is still going strong and that there are many new faces involved with the Red Star Learning centre in Chatham. (it makes me quite lachrymose - there's one for word of the week!)
Only last week I had a chance encounter with a learner who told me her career had took off since sahe addressed her literacy and numeracy and she would never have done it without meeting us during an Adult learners week some years ago!
It is great to see that life long learning is no longer a project, but sustainable within the employer and union agendas. I can only say well done to all the ULRs everywhere! Keep it up!
