Dear AFGE Activist,
These July webinars are HOT HOT HOT – including a brand new advanced bargaining webinar! Snag your spot before they fill up!
NOW Bargaining Basics – Monday, July 19 from 1:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time: This introductory webinar is aimed at members who are likely to be involved in the collective bargaining process at their local or council. We will discuss what can and cannot be bargained under federal law, “good faith” bargaining, use of official time, information requests, and how to access additional relevant resources.
NOW Strategic Bargaining – Tuesday and Wednesday, July 20 and 21 from 1:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time: Brand new webinar! This 2-day advanced bargaining skills class is for AFGE leaders and members already experienced in the collective bargaining process who would like to further develop their skills in negotiating collective bargaining agreements for federal employees. This course explores how to determine the best bargaining strategy for your situation, implementing a strategic bargaining plan, and effective strategies for educating members and gaining their support. Participants must attend both days. Participants should be experienced bargainers and/or have already attended the Bargaining Basics webinar.
E-Dues: Building Power – Tuesday, July 20 from 4:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m. Eastern Time: This webinar is aimed at local leaders and stewards who are interested in learning more about best practices for transitioning to E-Dues. This two-hour webinar outlines strategies for mobilizing teams, using workplace mapping to recruit with a purpose, and real examples of what has worked for other locals to successfully transition to E-Dues. We recommend completion of the Introduction to E-Dues self-paced online training prior to attending this webinar (available on the Education homepage).
