Steward Fundamentals is a two-day foundation-level course for all stewards. It focuses on the essential skills every steward needs to know. Through discussion and interactive group activities, you will be introduced to the key roles and responsibilities of a steward as advocate, educator, organizer and communicator. Stewards will leave feeling more confident and effective in their role and skillfull in their interactions with members and the employer.

This course is for elected stewards and local officers who have not previously taken the Basic Steward Training in the past five years.

Due to the limited number of seats available (20), priority will be given to new stewards who have never had training. 

A Union-paid leave-of-absence is provided for this course.

Travel, meals and accommodation, if required, are also provided.

Reasonable child care and/or other dependent care expenses may be reimbursed.
