The UAW Education Department will hold its Local Union Officers Institute on October 5-10, 2025. This institute will be held at the Walter and May Reuther UAW Family Education Center in Onaway, Michigan.
The institute will offer broad training for local union officers to learn their roles and responsibilities as leaders of a fighting union. New and seasoned officers alike will find this institute beneficial, and all will walk away with greater clarity about the expectations of their role.
This institute will provide local union officers with a clear understanding of their administrative responsibilities. Role-specific training will be provided for local union presidents, vice presidents, recording secretaries, and financial secretaries. Broad leadership and local union administration skills training will be provided to all delegates who hold other local executive board positions or aspire to become leaders in their local union.
ELIGIBILITY TO ATTEND
This institute is open to UAW members in good standing who are interested in learning more about their role as leaders. This institute is an ideal fit for local union presidents, vice presidents, recording secretaries, and financial secretaries, as role-specific training will be provided for each of these officer roles.
All other local union executive board members, including trustees, sergeant-at-arms, guides, and others, are also encouraged to attend.
This institute is a good fit for aspiring leaders who seek to develop their skills and prepare themselves for future local union leadership opportunities. Whether new, experienced, or aspiring, local union officers of all kinds will attend relevant training tracks to level up their leadership skills at this institute.
Local unions representing members in all sectors and industries - including TOP, Gaming, IPS, Higher Education, Heavy Truck, Agricultural Implement, Automotive, and others - will find this training useful and are strongly encouraged to send officers to attend.
Attendance is mandatory at all sessions and is taken daily. Local unions will be responsible for payment of all lost time.
