Regional Education


FBU Officials and active members can, with the help and guidance of their Brigade Education Officers and Regional Education & Learning Organisers, apply for a range of short courses offered within their Region. Many of these courses are supported by tutors from the TUC Education Service who are familiar with the FBU and the UKFRS and working together on the course with Regional Officials. In addition, as appropriate, some courses may be organised and delivered with the direct assistance of Head Office or Regional Officials, especially those familiar with Discussion Leader’s & Education Methods.

Courses supported by TUC tutors are accredited within the TUC Education programme.

Some courses will be offered on a residential basis over two or three days and others will be run on a day, non-residential basis.
