The PSA CPSU NSW is making it easier for members to up their skills. “DevelopU is an online learning platform that puts you in control,” said National Industrial and Research Officer Shay Deguara. “It gives union members a chance to improve their career skills, life skills and workplace skills.

“It is an e-learning platform you can use at your own pace, without taking time off work for training.

“The courses help you develop your career, your confidence, your people skills, your financial wellbeing and your understanding of Australia’s proud union movement. There are courses on creating safer workplaces and even a catalogue we’ve curated that will link you to free microcredential and microskills courses from TAFE.”

DevelopU will continue to add new courses, webinars, and access to TAFE courses for professional development.

PSA CPSU NSW members will sill have opportunities to undertake inhouse training through courses such as Role of the Delegate. 

Most PSA CPSU NSW members are eligible for paid trade union training days every year.

“With training available in house, or via our new DevelopU platform, the union is here to help our members improve their skills,” said Senior Organiser Glenn Duncan. “We encourage as many people as possible to sign up for union training today.”
