CUPW and Education

The union movement grew out of the struggle of working people to improve their lives.

Union education is, or should be, based in that struggle.

It's about developing the knowledge, will and confidence of the membership to defend their rights and the rights of others.

It's about recognizing shop floor, picket line and community activism as significant educational experiences.

It's about developing the awareness and confidence that can change the world.

Union education is a collective — as opposed to competitive — experience.
