Online Classes
The pandemic has presented us with a lot of change in the past several months, and we are proud of the work we have all done in this union to come together, pivot where necessary, and tackle challenges head-on. One such challenge is the need to continue to provide educational opportunities to our members and local leaders within the constraints of not being able to meet in person as we normally do. To address this, Region 1 is launching an online education program that will allow members and leaders to take union classes from the safety of their own homes.
Our online classes are all self-guided, and users can complete them on their own time and at their own pace. While online education cannot replace in-person education experiences that allow for personal interaction and dialogue, it can serve as a strong supplement—especially under our current circumstances.
Classes are grouped into three series:
- Building Our Union – for members
- Standing Together – for standing committees
- Leading for Change – for local union leaders (elected positions)
The following classes are currently available online:
Class descriptions are available in the UAW EDUCATION WORKSHOP MENU.
Members, elected leaders, and standing committee members are now welcome to sign up for online classes. Registrants will be enrolled on a first-come, first-served basis each month. Once enrolled, each user will have until the end of the month to complete courses in the system. Please be aware that space is limited—register as soon as possible to claim your seat! Overflow registrants each month will have priority for the following month.
***UPDATE: We quickly reached capacity for the November 2020, December 2020, and January 2021 sessions! We are now filling spaces for February 2021. Register now as seats will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis!***

You must be a UAW Region 1 member in good standing in order to participate. You must complete the online registration form in order to attend. If you have any questions, please reach out to Susie Reed at sreed@uaw.net.
