The Disability Union, which describes itself as ‘the first union by and for disabled people and carers,’ has launched a Skills Academy. It will enable members to access over 700 courses ranging from employability skills to new vocational accredited qualifications.
They are introducing the skills Academy as a pilot study – working with Staff Skills Training – to discover how many members would access it, and a 100 places are available on a first come first served basis.
The Disability Union says: “We are uncompromising when it comes to diversity and inclusion. We believe wholeheartedly in two core principles: None of us are free until we are all free. And Nothing about us, without us.” You can join the Disability Union here and then you can access the courses available.
