THE PATH TO COLLECTIVE BARGAINING/VEA VIRTUAL SUMMER LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE

During the General Assembly session, VEA helped overturn a decades-long ban on public sector collective bargaining. Thanks to VEA, local Unions will have the right to be recognized for bargaining beginning in 2021. That’s HUGE!
But before we bargain a new contract, we will have to organize, build coalitions, grow Union membership, and much more. At the Virtual Summer Leadership Conference, VEA will equip you with the skills to win representation and have a real voice. You need to sign up now and encourage your fellow members to join the fight!
The conference runs from July 13-17 and registration is open now. Sessions are spread across the five days, usually with virtual presentations in the mornings followed by virtual Q&A or “labs” in the afternoons.
This comprehensive online training is open to anyone interested in stepping up as a leader in the VEA or their local Union. And it’s FREE! All you’ll need, once you’ve registered, is reliable internet access and a device with a webcam and microphone. Sign up today!
