Regional Educationals
The goal of the OPSEU
Education Policy is to provide educational programs that empower our
members to effect meaningful change in their workplaces and their
communities.
OPSEU offers training courses for activists, held on weekends at locations
across the province, with expenses paid for by the Education Fund. These
educationals are administered by OPSEU Regional Offices.
The focus
of our regional schools is skills development geared to new members and
activists. If you are interested in attending an OPSEU educational,
contact your Local Executive Committee. See schedule of Regional schools
Many OPSEU courses are now accredited through the “Passport to Learning”
program, which offers credits toward college diplomas through Mohawk
College.
