For union questions and for prospective student referrals to ESL, high school equivalency, math, reading, writing, science and social studies classes as well as various employment-readiness classes and related services, please contact uftcwemembers@gmail.com.
The 2024 Consortium for Workers Education Chapter elections will take place this spring. The elections will determine various leadership positions, including chapter leader, assistant chapter leader, and delegate assembly delegates. See the Notice of Election and the Election FAQ for additional information.
