Elective Courses
With guidance from their sponsors and the Institute faculty, participants customize their own leadership development plans by choosing up to three additional courses, workshops or seminars on such topics as public speaking, collective bargaining, financial management, grievance handling and arbitration. Cost is included in the Institute tuition, and courses can be chosen from among any offered by Cornell through their Union Leadership Workshop Series in New York City, or on line credit or non credit labor courses and workshops. These courses are optional and should be completed within one year of graduation.
