REGISTRATION DEADLINE: Monday, July 28, 2025
The UAW Education Department will hold a Contract Enforcement Boot Camp on September 7-12, 2025. The institute will be held at the Walter and May Reuther UAW Family Education Center in Onaway, Michigan.
This institute will offer intense training for local union grievance handlers, emphasizing an organizing approach to contract enforcement. Delegates will develop the basic technical skills needed to be effective union representatives while also working through more complex challenges facing stewards in a modern workplace.
ELIGIBILITY TO ATTEND
This institute is open to UAW members in good standing and is intended for those who currently have a role in their grievance procedure, alternates, and those aspiring to be a grievance handler. Newly elected and seasoned grievance handlers alike are encouraged to attend.
Delegate eligibility is limited to active members of your local union, including members on layoff or strike. Members on sick leave, retired members, and spouses who are not members of your local union are not eligible to attend.
TRAINING AND WORKSHOPS
All delegates will attend an assigned core curriculum and have the option of three elective workshops to attend at the institute. The elective workshops offer delegates to sharpen their skills on notetaking, interpreting contract language, health and safety, civil and human rights, arbitration, the UAW appeals process, and legal matters.
HOW TO REGISTER
