STEP UP! is a one-day course: March 7, 2023 from 9:00am to 5:00pm MT at the BCGEU East Kootenay Area Office in Cranbrook (Area 08).

To register you need to just need to be a BCGEU member within Area 08. This course is open to you whether you're a brand-new member or you've been a member for a while.

This STEP UP! workshop will introduce you to our union and help you develop your skills and knowledge around your rights as a worker and the role your union plays in supporting workers, their families, and our communities. Through stories of courage and strength, you will gain the clarity and support you need along with some useful union tools and strategies to get started with the BCGEU. You will leave feeling more informed, confident, and ready to connect with your co-workers.

Lunch will be provided. Please let the Area Office know of any dietary restrictions when you register.

If you require an LOA, please provide your total paid hours worked (exclude breaks not paid for), on the day scheduled to work during the training.

For BCGEU paid hotel accommodations, the attendee's home address must be at least 100kms or more away from the Area 08 Office.
