Who we are
Birmingham Training Unit (BTU), formerly Birmingham Tribunal Unit, formed a mutual partnership with Birmingham Settlement in 2014 and we now work together as one towards common goals.
Established in the 1970s BTU has a longstanding history of providing specialist training, advice and support in welfare benefits law. Since developing the partnership with Birmingham Settlement, BTU has expanded its training provision building on the expertise of both organisations introducing a variety of new training courses.
What we do
Training
Working with organisations across the UK, we upskill staff across all sectors through specialist training provision covering a variety of subject areas.
Workshops
Engaging with local organisations, we help to raise the awareness in communities through informal workshops covering such topics as benefits, financial capability and well-being.
Partnerships
We work closely with other members of the Gateway to Birmingham Advice Services Partnership and Locality West Midlands Consortium, offering specialist advice and training to staff and service users covering a range of topics.
Where to find us
Whilst we deliver training across the UK, we are based at the Birmingham Settlement Aston office.
