We encourage members to request in-person trainings for their facilities throughout the year (contact labored@nysna.org) but we also have a calendar of online Zoom trainings for our most requested topics

We are offering a Zoom version of our Leader Training * in Spring and Fall 2024. The Leader Training has long been a resource for nurses who want to build union power, advocate for their patients, and make positive changes in their workplace. Members can do all four parts or mix and match whichever topics are most relevant to your needs.
· Leader Training Part 1: The Responsibilities of Leaders to Advocate for Themselves and Their Patients
· Leader Training Part 2: Using Representational Rights Under Law and the Contract to Improve Working Conditions
· Leader Training Part 3: Organizing for Collective Advocacy to Build Unity and Engage the Healthcare Worker Community
