EIS Equality Reps must undertake training which is carried out by the TUC.
The module covers the equality agenda broadly as it applies to teachers and how Equality Reps fit within EIS structures.
The course is carried out over four separate days and on completion the Equality Rep will have an SCQF Level 6 qualification.
The next Stage 1 and Stage 2 courses have been provisionally scheduled for the below dates:
Stage 1, Day 1: Friday 31 October 2025
Stage 1, Day 2: Friday 7 November 2025
*
Stage 2, Day 1: Friday 5 December 2025
Stage 2, Day 2: Friday 30 January 2026
Each training day runs from 9:30am-4pm and will take place online.
If you are interested in training to become an EIS Equality Rep, please contact your Local Association or Branch Secretary.
Local Associations and Branches who do not currently have an Equality Rep in post or in training are particularly encouraged to identify a member to take part in the next round of Stage 1 training.
