AUDIENCE: CTA Local Chapter Presidents and Vice-Presidents Only.

Join us for the Presidents Conference – Home Edition!, July 12-16, 2021. Interactive sessions for new and experienced chapter leaders will provide training designed to enhance your skills as a local president and help build systems of success for your local chapter.

On the horizon are constant challenges to the labor movement that will impact the work we do as an organization. The Presidents Conference will provide new and returning presidents a foundation to rely upon as we prepare our chapters well into the future. This conference will host a variety of informative skill building sessions and provide opportunities to build lasting relationships with other presidents. The content focus and design of Presidents Conference is with chapter operations in mind.

The 2021 Presidents Conference – Home Edition! will be provided free of charge to CTA Presidents and Vice-Presidents. Do not miss this extraordinary opportunity!

If you have any questions, please email the conference staff at PresidentsConference@cta.org.
