PSAC Alliance Facilitators Network and Resources

Would you like to offer union education in your area delivered by an Alliance Facilitator? 

We have a skilled network of members who are Alliance Member Facilitators who would like nothing more than to facilitate short union education modules!   Please contact Justin Kong, Acting Ontario Regional Education Officer at kongj@psac-afpc.com if you would like to invite an Alliance Facilitator to facilitate a workplace, local or regional union activity.   

Calling on all Ontario Region Alliance Facilitators: Interested in sharing your story or hot tips? Do you have an exciting idea for the AFN Newsletter?

Please submit short descriptions of your Alliance Facilitator activities to Justin Kong, Acting Ontario Regional Education Officer at kongj@psac-afpc.com
