The Labour College of Canada (LCC) Certificate Program is now accepting applications for Cohort 15, to begin in June 2025. Application deadline is: March 9th, 2025.
The LCC Certificate Program is a university-level, labour studies and leadership program for labour leaders and active union members.
The new flexible program combines online and in-person learning over 14 months, to accommodate busy and changing schedules.
Participants come from a diversity of unions and regions in the country. Students learn together in large or small groups (or cohorts) throughout the program as they discuss, debate, and strategize on key issues facing workers inside and outside of unions.
The LCC Certificate Program:
- Builds leadership skills and provides leadership tools;
- Fosters empowerment, self-confidence, and new networks of labour leaders;
- Strengthens critical thinking skills;
- Examines working class struggles and human rights issues that affect all workers; and
- Creates change!
