Dear AFGE Activist,

Tuesday, May 31, 3:00pm-5:00pm Eastern: Building Power by Building Teams with Edues

How can I achieve my EDues goals? How can I use Broadstripes to assess my BUE? These are some of the many questions faced today by local leaders avidly working to organize and sign members up for EDues. This two-hour workshop will enable you to plan and analyze data to identify events to recruit new and existing members to EDues. This workshop allows you to use Broadstripes to find EDues members and describes how to create a comprehensive list of your entire bargaining unit (BU), to distinguish members from potential members. Additionally, participants will learn how to format a local email based on the steps outlined by your recruitment plan.  

Friday, June 3, 1:00pm-5:00pm Eastern: Local Officer Online Orientation

This overview training is designed to acquaint local leaders with the roles and responsibilities of elected officers and provide general information and resources needed to begin the process of building a strong and effective local. Legal, fiduciary, and reporting requirements are discussed, as are planning and budgeting.

Friday, June 10, 1:00-5:00pm Eastern: Stewards Online Orientation

A must for new stewards (or stewards who never received formal training), this introductory webinar overviews the role of the steward, active worksite representation, and one of the most important laws that outlines the rights of union representatives: 5 USC Chapter 71.

Please note: all webinars are held in Eastern Time. If you have not done so already, you must create a login for Labor Lab in order to register and attend FSED webinars. Click here to learn more about Labor Lab, our new webinar learning management system.
