  • Supporting Our Members in a Moment of Crisis with BC211
    This is a two-part series, hosted by the United Way of the Lower Mainland.
    April 22 & 29, 6:30 p.m. – 8 p.m.

    Register here.
    This course is open to all members, but ideal for stewards.
    As job stewards you are often the first person a member will come to when they are in distress or crisis. This two part session is a great opportunity for you to learn what to watch for with members in crisis, and how using the resource of BC211 can get our members the services and support they need quickly. These sessions will help you to navigate www.BC211.ca and how you, as a steward and co-worker, can support a member who is in distress.
    NB. You must complete both sessions to receive your certificate of completion.
  • Job Steward Level Two
    This is a four-part series on May 19, 26, June 2 and 9, 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m.
    Register here.
    This course is for Job Stewards.
    This course is the follow-up to Job Steward Level 1. You will expand your knowledge and confidence in your roll as steward as you learn some of the more complex labour relations topics that stewards face.
    NB. You must complete all four sessions to receive your certificate of completion. Prerequisite course: Job Steward Level 1.
  • Demystifying the Electoral Process at MoveUP
