Welcome to SU Learn

The virtual learning platform for SUs


About SU Learn


We're excited to launch our online learning platform SU Learn! It provides a space for virtual learning for SU/SA staff and officers. 

This online learning hub for the student movement contains bespoke content curated specifically for students' union/association professionals, elected officers and volunteers. 


We encourage you to use your ‘learner’ profile and access learning through the site during our pilot of this platform. 


To allow other learners to make use of the site, we may ‘de-activate’ your account if you are not using it. This doesn’t meant your account is deleted, it just means we’ve put a hold on you being able to use your account to allow others to learn. 


If you wish to re-activate your account to undertake some learning, email our team on learningdevelopment@nus.org.uk
