This two-day introduction to organizing provides members with knowledge and support to help build collective power at work. The training will introduce participants to core organizing skills that can help build the kind of union engagement needed to tackle issues at work.

A hotel is available to those travelling over 50 minutes to the venue.

The training will take place from 9am - 5pm Mountain Time.

Steward Fundamentals is our two-day foundation-level course for all stewards in our Leadership, Education and Activism Program (LEAP). It will introduce you to your key roles and responsibilities as a steward and help you develop the essential skills you will need.

Through discussion, interactive group activities and role-plays, you will be introduced to the key roles and responsibilities of a steward as advocate, educator, organizer and communicator.
