Spring 2020 Membership Meetings

• Friday, January 24, 2-4 PM (see below re RSVP and room location)

Join with PTFA members, representatives and officers in a training workshop provided by the California Federation of Teachers (CFT) on FRIDAY JANUARY 24, 2-4pm. The training is open to all USF PTFA members. Zoom participation is not available for this training session.

If you're interested in participating, RSVP by January 22: send a message to Rebecca at secretary@usfptfa.org

The excellent CFT trainers will walk you through the steps of engaging your adjunct colleagues in discussions about benefits, policies, and issues of concern to all part time faculty at USF.

The workshop will help train members for a campus wide Outreach Drive in spring 2020. The Drive will prepare us for the PTFA elections scheduled for April 2020 as well as contract negotiations which are set for Summer 2021.
