In 2012-2013 The Department for Business Innovation and Skills (BIS) awarded £20.210m under a Grant Funding Agreement to unionlearn, the learning and skills organisation of the TUC. The majority of this funding, £14,495,000, is allocated to Union Learning Funded (ULF) projects.
As referenced in Hansard, [HL16654: 23 Apr 2012: Column WA380], the Unionlearn budget for 2012-13 was reduced by 6% (£1.29 million).
As a social partnership unionlearn have an important role to play in support of the Government’s Skills Strategy, Rigour and Responsiveness. The agreed priorities for union learning funded projects for 2013-2014 are:
1. Greater Employer Ownership of the Skills System
2. More sustainable employment for young people
3. Building a High Skills Workforce
4. Driving up Standards and Quality of Skills provision
As yet a full assessment has not been conducted into the effectiveness of reaching out to non-unionised workplaces as it has only been piloted and rolled out by ULF projects in the last round of ULF. An interim evaluation of this work was commissioned by unionlearn and will be published by Campaign for Learning when completed.
