FINAL REMINDER – Ken McKenzie Award for Lifelong Learning 2016
Branches will be aware of the policy adopted at General Conference 2010 to present the “Ken McKenzie Award for Lifelong Learning” which is presented to a ULR (Union Learning Representative) or group of ULRs who have made a significant contribution to lifelong learning within the CWU. The award is presented each year at our CWU ULR National Networking Event. This year will follow tradition and be part of the agenda at this year’s event scheduled to be held at St. James’ Park, Newcastle over two days on the 16th and 17th November 2016.
Last year the accolade was awarded to Darren Rowbotham (Western Counties) and as usual we received a good number of nominations of a very high quality. Darren and George White (Mount Pleasant Branch) went on to receive awards from the TUC this year.
I am now inviting applications from Branches for the 2016 Annual Ken McKenzie award for lifelong learning. The award will be made in recognition of exceptional achievements and contributions to lifelong learning by a CWU ULR or a group of CWU ULRs. Nominations can be made by Branches, Regional Learning Committees or Regional Committees by completing the attached nomination form.
Completed nominations should include a detailed précis of the nominated ULR or group of ULRs endeavours and achievements and be sent to:
Michelle Simpson, Education and Training Department, CWU, 150 The Broadway, Wimbledon, London, SW19 1RX or email learn@cwu.org
The closing date for nominations will be FRIDAY 7TH OCTOBER 2016.
Any queries relating to this LTB should be addressed to me via the Education and Training Department at learn@cwu.org
Yours sincerely,
TRISH LAVELLE
HEAD OF EDUCATION & TRAINING
