2008 Michigan Labor Press Conference

Conference Overview

The Michigan Labor Press Annual Training Conference is open to all local union officers, AFL-CIO Central Labor Councils, UAW-CAP Councils, members who contribute or write for local union/joint newspapers and all labor communicators.

This conference will feature dynamic workshops, featuring labor communication specialists, designed to sharpen the communication skills of union activists.

Newspapers are an important tool to communicate labor's message to union members. Our newspapers deliver a message and our members want that message. Studies have shown that members want one on one communication.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
Any brother or sister in the local or workplace who has responsibilities which include membership communication and who wants to be more comfortable in all aspects of that communication. Conference participants do not need to be members of the MLP.

SPONSORSHIP
This conference is sponsored by the Michigan Labor Press with support from: UAW, USWA Local 12075 and SEIU Local 517M.

CONFERENCE FEE
The conference fee is $175.00. To help in the planning, please register by April 11th. A late fee of $75.00 will be imposed if your registration is received after the cut off date and your acceptance will be approved if space is available. Please call for confirmation.
