The NUTGTWN has proved that training and retraining of its members and officers across the country is one of its topmost priorities.

The union with the support of Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung (FES) Nigeria office has successfully trained selected branch officers as Study Circle leaders/facilitators. They are to assist in stepping down union’s education and promote understanding of trade union issues by the shop floor members as part of the union’s effort and commitment to building an informed and enlightened membership.

The workshop went a long way in building participants confidence and capacity as leaders of study circle and improved their knowledge on basic trade union issue. The FES also donated training equipment to the Union for training of the workers. The study circle leaders have been able to take up the challenge by impacting their shop stewards with the knowledge they have acquired using the Union’s Study Circle Manual.
