Labor School Calendar
The MNA Labor School consists of six separate tracks in each region running between five to seven weeks.
- Classes are standardized. If a class is missed in one region, it can be picked up in another.
- At the conclusion of each track, participants receive a certificate of completion.
- MNA members who complete two tracks will receive an MNA Labor School blue jacket.
- There are no prerequisites.
- Members need not follow tracks in order. Each track is self-contained, focusing on a specific area of interest.
- Preregistration through the Regional office is necessary.
- All courses are free and open to any MNA member.
