IAPE Steward Education Opportunities!

With more and more members volunteering to become IAPE stewards, your Union is offering extra opportunities to learn more about what stewardship means. Tomorrow, at 7:00 p.m. EDT, you can catch our next class: Contract Enforcement and Education.

This training will focus on the role of stewards in educating their fellow members about their rights under the contract and how to enforce those standards and protections. We’ll discuss how to listen and learn from fellow members, as well as ways of keeping folks connected and informed.

Later this month, be sure to join us for our third installment of IAPE steward training: Union Representation and Legal Rights.

On Aug. 29 at 7:00 p.m. EDT, we’ll go over the specific legal rights of stewards and their roles as Union representatives. We’ll practice that member advocacy, and we’ll learn about the details of IAPE’s processes for discipline and grievances.

Labor Notes Union Ed
And we have even more union training opportunities! Labor Notes is hosting a series of continuing union education courses throughout the month of August. On Aug. 15, 22 and 29 at 7:30 p.m. EDT, Labor Notes will present Race and Labor, a look at how class and race are inextricably linked, tracing back the origins of “race” as an invention of the ruling class to divide workers. Participants will talk about how to move to strategies of unity.

On Aug. 12, 19 and 26 at 8:00 p.m., be sure to catch Secrets of a Successful Organizer, Labor Notes' core organizing training, in three sessions full of lively participatory exercises.
