UPCOMING DUES TRAINING FOR LOCALS

  LOCAL LEADERS

We are pleased to announce another round of online training for locals on CWA dues systems, membership tracking and related financial operations for locals.

This is not a step-by-step training, however, sessions are structured to help you understand how the overall system works, including how to get the most out of the Orion system. The webinars are open to local officers, clerks and bookkeepers and others who help track dues and membership for your local.

The schedule is as follows:
