Learning and Skills Network launch

BECTU is launching a new Freelance Learning and Skills Network in February.

The network will play a proactive role in influencing the quality and provision of training and development for freelancers in the audio-visual industries.

BECTU will also be looking to use the resources and potential of the internet to empower the network and bring together freelancers from around the UK and Ireland.

The launch will take place at the Friend's Meeting House, Euston, London - 1200-1600 on Friday 11 February 2006.

All travel, accomodation, meals and refreshments expenses will be reimbursed. Please note this is an event for BECTU members only.
