APWU Leadership Institute Class Three Applications Open Until June 13, 2025!

The Leadership Institute is an intensive three-week educational program, held one week at a time over a three-month period. The program will focus on topics ranging from organizing, bargaining, and representation, to legislation, community alliances, and building the APWU and union movements. It will help strengthen and enhance the leadership skills of local and state leaders, and union activists across the country. The Institute will be organized and overseen by the national president’s office and will include the participation of many national officers. The national APWU will cover all the costs, including lost compensation, of the participants.

The Institute is open to all full dues-paying APWU members in good standing with demonstrated involvement in the union. Each three-week session will consist of a diverse group of APWU members from all five regions and all crafts. Participants will be chosen via an impartial selection process. Although enrollment in the Institute's Class Three is limited, there will be opportunities to participate in future Leadership Institutes.
