The training program is structured in three parts:

The sessions will be held by: Marcel Spătari, Syndex Romania expert, Paula Cârlan, Cartel Alfa expert, Florentin Iancu, Maria Stoian and Viorel Vlad, trainers at UNI-SEEOC (UNI's South East Europe Organizing Center).

This program is addressed to people who are active in trade unions, preferably those who are leaders or have a role in trade union organizing, and who at the end of the course want to implement innovative strategies for trade union action. Priority will be given to participants up to 45 years of age.
