The United Association for Labor Education

 

UALE was founded on April 15, 2000 in Milwaukee, WI, from the merger of two predecessor organizations, the University and College Labor Educators Association (UCLEA), and Workers Education Local 189 (WEL 189). We aim to take the best of both organizations into the new millennium.

We now have about 550 individual members, including university and college faculty, members of union education departments, labor extension teachers, trainers working in community-based organizations, workplace educators, independent filmmakers, writers, and many others. We also have 60 institutional members, including colleges & universities, unions, and community-based organizations. Our members hail from 40 states plus the District of Columbia, 4 provinces of Canada, Trinidad, Germany, England and Scotland.

To learn more about our organization, visit the rest of our site.
