Several role plays are utilized to give the Steward an opportunity to do case studies and develop strategies and arguments to defend a worker.
Advanced Steward will develop skills and knowledge in gathering relevant information to assist in possible grievances. Grievances concerning the duty to accommodate, dealing with management, and harassment will be studied / analyzed. The course will build confidence and enhance your ability to act as educator in your local.

Steward Level 2 is the second step in Steward education at PEI UPSE. This course focuses on representation issues, knowing the membership you work with, linking with the local and union executive, identifying grievances, developing problem solving and conflict resolution skills. A consistent theme through the course is the role of a steward as both an enthusiast and activist. The importance of the duty of fair representation and the duty to accommodate are discussed at length.
