In 2015 the IEU will hold another training program for members who are seeking to become more active in the Union, particularly at chapter and branch level and through the various forums of the Union.
The inaugural Activist Conference held last year was well highly successful, with a number of attendees now holding down positions on IEU Council.
This will be a residential program during the Easter break (April 16-17) at Leura in the Blue Mountains and is limited to 25 participants.
The agenda will cover the role of trade unions in Australia, the place of the IEU in the wider union movement, IEU policy, its structure and representational forums. Member-based campaigning will also be a feature.
