Do you have an interest in activism? Are you a member of CMG Freelance? Our members are eligible to apply for a couple of upcoming training courses and workshops.

The first is a six-week online course offered by the Canadian Labour Congress. It's designed to help young workers develop leadership and organizing skills and give them a better understanding of activism. The program runs from February 24th to April 15th and is open to members under the age of 30. Courses will take place on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. Space is limited, so if you're interested email education@cmg.ca by February 4th to apply.

The second opportunity is a series of election preparation workshops being run by the Canadian Labour Congress in various cities across the country between January 23rd and March 21st. The free workshops will teach skills such as advocacy and effective campaigning in the lead-up to this year's federal election. Check out this link to find out when the workshops are coming to your city or to register.
