To address the constant demand for education, CUPE’s Union Education is working hard to provide workshops to members, this time with online tools.
CUPE Union Education Representative in Ontario took on the challenge by adapting the popular workshop Introduction to Stewarding. A first successful online training was done in May with CUPE 5441, a new local at the Toronto Hospital.
Presently, Union Education is prioritizing online training for stewards to new or merged CUPE locals. The branch is also providing locals the opportunity for online strategic planning sessions. CUPE members can also register for health and safety webinars on cupe.ca.
