Co-operatives UK Learning Needs Analysis Survey

On behalf of Co-operatives UK's worker co-operative council, we have been asked to explore different approaches to supporting our members in relation to improving: soft/inter-personal or you could say "co-operative skills". Such as: communication, decision-making, meeting together, dealing with conflict, group dynamics and so on.

We would like to find out what members needs are and how best to meet them. By filling in this survey you will help us find the evidence to propose better ways of delivering support and training to our members.
