Great opportunity to develop essential union skills

Sheraton Springfield Monarch Place Hotel

Springfield, MA

Together, MTA members and leaders from across the state will deepen our knowledge and sharpen our union skills so that we continue to grow stronger locals and an even more powerful MTA. Join us for the Union Skills Winter Conference, where you can attend workshops that center on core union priorities such as the Fund Our Future campaign Phase II, negotiations, member advocacy and organizing, current issues, communications, employee rights, professional matters and more.

This year’s energizing conference will celebrate our Student Opportunity Act victory, feature Dedham Education Association members as lunch speakers, and welcome special guest educators from South Africa.

We encourage each local to bring a group of members to participate in different training segments based on their roles and interests. This is a great opportunity for new activists to participate in an energizing statewide event while developing essential union skills.
