Labor Extension Program at UMass Boston

Since 1995, the Labor Extension Program has provided hands-on training and technical assistance to workers, union members and community organizations.

While our educational sessions are as diverse as the participants we attract, one simple principle unites everything we do: linking education with action to build a stronger labor movement.

Recent training sessions have dealt with such topics as workplace rights, organizing, computer skills, and corporate research, as well as skills trainings for union stewards.

For information on Labor Extension related activities on all four UMass campuses, visit the Statewide Labor Extension page.

For more information on this year's Labor Extension schedule and other upcoming events, e-mail Tess Ewing , Labor Extension Coordinator, or call her at 617-287-7352.
