Labor Relations Certificate

In eCornell Certificate Programs   

This certificate program is designed for management and union representatives new to labor relations who need to learn the basics. The program focuses on two key aspects of labor relations: negotiating an agreement (collective bargaining) and operating within an agreement (contract administration).

Throughout the courses, you will have the opportunity to practice and apply key skills to your own organization’s issues and dynamics. You will focus on establishing a foundation in collective bargaining within the union environment and then take a close look at contract negotiation, including how to cost out a contract during tense and fast-moving negotiations. The last two courses provide a time-tested, comprehensive method to address workplace conflict, from the grievance through arbitration.
