Co-operative Tours

As a dedicated co-operative learning organisation, we’re uniquely placed to provide tailored, in-person co-operative learning packages to international and UK based organisations and study groups, visiting Manchester.  

Our experienced learning team will work with your organisation to co-create an interactive learning experience that meets your training needs and inspires co-operation. 

Read about some of the core modules we currently offer here.

As part of our in-person learning packages for groups, we can offer co-operative tours which help provide a truly immersive experience into the UK co-operative movement. The tours can be incorporated into your tailored learning package, and include: 

  • Visit to the Rochdale Pioneers Museum at Toad Lane – birthplace of the modern co-operative movement 
  • Interactive session about the history of the College and the wider UK co-operative movement 
  • Walking tour of Manchester’s famous co-operative quarter 
  • Session exploring the modern co-operative movement in the UK, featuring discussion, real-life examples, and interactive exercises  
  • Twelve month’s organisational membership 

If required, we can arrange UK transport, accommodation, catering, and language interpretation services.
