The Covid pandemic has made it more difficult to deliver face-to-face steward training, but we are pleased to continue offering our Steward Basics webinar while the union slowly resumes in-person course scheduling. This webinar is for you if you are a steward but have not yet attended our Steward Fundamentals course or need a refresher.

By the end of this webinar, you will understand:

• your rights and responsibilities as a steward
• how to get started as a steward
• the grievance procedure
• how to handle disciplinary grievances

This does not replace our in-person STEP UP! and Steward Fundamentals courses. As these in-person courses and workshops continue to become available in greater volume, you will be invited to register for them.

To join this online training, you will need:

• a computer with internal audio or external speakers, a microphone and built-in camera
• a high-speed internet connection
• a relatively quiet space, a pad of paper and a pen and a copy of your collective agreement 

You can request a union-paid leave of absence from your employer for this training. We will send you a leave-of-absence form to submit to your supervisor.

As space is limited, registrations are being accepted on a first-come, first-served basis.
