Ever wondered how to form a union at work?

UPCOMING MARCH TRAINING: This EWOC (Emergency Worker Organizing Committee, a project of the DSA and UE) training series will help you and your co-workers build your union from the ground up. EWOCS is an amazing organization that provides free training for workers from all industries (including, of course, ABA workers). In this training series, you'll hear from both experienced and new organizers who are organizing their own workplaces. Trainings embrace a popular education model, beginning with practical shared experiences before participants dive into small discussion groups with participants across the globe.

 

It is highly encouraged that folks commit to the entire training series, as each module provides a stepwise lesson with practical action you can take to organize your workplace.

 

PLEASE NOTE: EWOCS is not affiliated with the ABA Workers Union. EWOCS is a project of the DSA and UE and is an incredible volunteer-led organization that supports aspiring and experienced organizers alike.

 

Starts January 6th. Registration closes 12/30/2026.

Organizing 4 Power is organizing a single-session workshop to refresh or introduce graduates of previous training on the subject of Structure Tests. In an escalatory campaign, taking risky actions on a unified front is challenging, and the boss will do everything in their power to stop it.

 

This session will focus on finalizing the worksheet designed to help structure your A Plan to Win. Content will also include introductions to charting/workplace mapping, live workshopping with previous training graduates, and a discussion on how to put these plans into motion effectively.

Additional trainings are coming up, so be sure to RSVP on the Organizing 4 Power website: 

  • March 5th, Community Group Structure Tests: Identifying and Choosing Structures and Targets (for community groups)
  • Power-Up II: A core organizing training on targets, escalation and structure tests on May 5th, 7th, 19th, and 21st as part of this series

More information is available on the Organizing 4 Power website: https://organizing4power.org/
