E-training module helps with dyslexia support


A new online training module to help union members and activists support colleagues who have, or suspect they have, dyslexia has been launched.


Public service union UNISON’s e-note, Dyslexia Awareness, is a short, informal module, designed to allow learners to work through an overview of the topic at their own pace.


Through a series of activities and video interviews with UNISON members, the interactive module explores what it’s like to have dyslexia and the legal obligations and protections for people with dyslexia, and has tips on how to make branch communications dyslexia-friendly.
