Power up your skills

Do you want to power up your skills, knowledge, and career prospects? 13 – 19 May is Learning at Work Week, and to mark it we’ll be hosting a series of online and in-person events that you can take advantage of.
What is Learning at Work Week?
Learning at Work Week is an annual event led nationally by Campaign for Learning, an organisation that aims to enable social change by empowering people through lifelong learning. The week is designed to raise awareness with companies on the importance of providing learning for their people, and for everyone in the UK to make the most of learning opportunities within the workplace.
What learning is on offer at Royal Mail?
