Labour Education Centre
Who We Are and What We Do
For nearly a quarter of a century the Labour Education Centre has been opening doors for workers.We’ve opened doors to literacy and language skills for adult learners who’ve never had the chance before. We’ve opened doors to employment for those who don’t have jobs.
We’ve also opened doors to help unions and working people build a better life and a better society. If you’re finding that all of the doors you encounter are closed, why not contact us at [email protected] or call at (416) 537-6532
Strategic Plan
The Labour Council approved its 2020-2022 Strategic Plan in November of 2019 after several months of careful consideration and consultation. The plan was developed with our current political realities and future labour battles in mind, as well as our Council’s overarching commitment to social, economic, racial, and environmental justice.
