Young, Organizing, Unionizing and Resisting!
YOUR course is a participatory, action-oriented course for PSAC members under the age of 30. It is a unique opportunity for young workers to share their experiences, discuss common struggles and analyze the issues they face at work, in the Union and in society.
Participants will discuss their rights as workers and discuss what it means to be in a Union like the PSAC. They will also share and learn about global issues and discuss the role of young workers in the dynamic movement for social justice.
The course will take place in Vancouver, September 30 to October 1. Members under 30 from across the province are encouraged to apply before the deadline of August 18. Apply on line here and/or download the course poster (pdf).
