The theme for the 2010 session of Labour College is: "Our Economy, Our Jobs, Our Future." As recent events have shown us, the livelihoods of our members are threatened by the whims of short-sighted bankers and employers. The "fend for yourself" economy these people have boosted for years is now in tatters. Now more than ever, we need advanced labour education to help emerging union leaders tackle the issues facing our movement today.
Since its founding in 1962, the Labour College has played this pivotal role.
The 2010 session of the Labour College will have the following components:
- First residency period: January 3-15, 2010 (NAV CANADA Training and Conference Centre, Cornwall, ON)
- Inter-session student project: January 16-May 1, 2010 (completed by students on their own time between the first and second residency period)
- Second residency period: May 3-15, 2010 (Location TBA)
Please note that the Labour College program is offered in English only.
