DescriptionLabour relations broadly refers to the interactions between management and unions in a unionized workforce, or in an organization that has the potential to become unionized. This online College Certificate program provides students with the skills and knowledge required to develop and maintain effective union-management relationships. The program offers a rich learning experience with real-life applications for individuals who have experience working with unions or management and want to advance in their career, as well as for those who want to better understand and participate in labour relations within their workplaces.

Students gain an understanding of the theory, principles and policies that underpin the collective bargaining process and consider social, economic and political factors that shape the area of labour relations today. Major topics include legislative frameworks, the process of collective bargaining, interpreting and administering collective agreements, standard grievance procedures, conciliation, mediation and arbitration processes, the impact of strikes and lockouts, globalization and its impact on work and workers.
