We work with you to create an agenda that mixes educational workshops and discussions with whole group meetings and strategy sessions. Past AUD conferences have helped activists get the running start they needed to form reform groups in their unions. The classes are based on the needs and concerns of the participants and help them find real world solutions to the problems they face in their organizing. Contact us for registration and schedule information. Call us to discuss what would work best for you.
Short sessions are good for learning the basics, or for tackling a specific problem or question.
We train stewards, newly elected officers, activists in existing reform groups, and teach activists to become teachers of union democracy and organizing. The Union Democracy Worker Education Project provides materials to help unionists organize for democracy and power. In addition to the many books and pamphlets described on our publications list, and the educational materials available on this website, we are at work on a resource guide for union activists who want to run their own educational workshops.
