OSEA is holding its first Intensive Membership Drive (IMD) of the year in October – and it’s going to be a doozy! This drive will include the first-ever IMD Academy, a full day membership growth training course where attendees will learn how to talk to potential members and tell their union story. New organizers will get the opportunity to learn from the ground up through this in-depth training. Experienced union builders will get to refresh their skill set and help fellow members grow their organizing muscles.
The IMD Academy will be held at the State Office in Salem on Sunday, Oct. 20th. Trainees will then get to practice their new organizing skills that week, Oct. 21st-25th, by visiting the chapters within driving distance of Salem. There will be unlimited opportunities to practice one-on-one conversations with potential members – a fundamental building block in our union foundation!
Time release, mileage and lodging are available. Sign up here for this chance to be a part of OSEA’s first IMD Academy.
