Get on board the e-Train - Labour learning on-line
Check out the new course, “Equity Groups and the PSAC,” on the e-train. If you haven’t done so, please register with the e-learning program. It is a good way to learn more about your union and union-related issues. We will be adding new courses regularly.
PSAC Online Learning Adds Workplace Safety and Listening Skills to Course List
PSAC's online learning centre has added two courses:
Office Safety
Individual Listening Skills
The Office Safety course features an interactive ergonomic lesson which can help with your computer workspace configuration.
The Individual Listening Skills course will help you become a more effective communicator in your workplace, with your family or while engaging in union activism.
