Financial Aid and Scholarships Veterans’ Benefits Deferred Billing and Payment Plans 1 ABOUT US What degrees do you grant? We grant a Bachelor of Arts (BA) and a Bachelor of Technical/Professional Studies (BTPS). What subjects can I major in at the NLC? The Bachelor of Arts offers six majors: Labor Studies, Labor Education, Labor History, Labor Safety and Health, Political Economy of Labor, and Union Leadership and Administration. The Bachelor of Technical/Professional Studies degree does not offer majors, but instead offers areas of specialization, which currently Leadership, Instructional Technology and Computer Skills, Occupational Safety and Health, Music and Arts and Labor Studies. Are you a four-year college? We are licensed and accredited as an upper‐level‐degree completion institution; most of our courses in the degree programs are offered at the equivalent of the junior and senior year. This means that we are best suited for students who have already obtained some number of academic credits through study at other colleges or have earned credits through academically assessed apprenticeships or licensure programs or through military service. Is the National Labor College accredited? Yes. The accrediting body is the Middle State Commission on Higher Education, the unit of the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools that accredits degree‐granting colleges and universities in the Middle States region, located at 3624 Market Street, Philadelphia, PA 19104 (256) 284‐5000. To look us up on their site or for more information about how accreditation works and what it means, go to www.msche.org. Do I have to come to campus to attend classes? It depends on the program that you are enrolled in. There are in‐residence requirements for many of the classes in the Bachelor of Arts program. Most students in the BA program would likely need to attend at least one residency week, perhaps more depending upon the desired major and the need to complete the core curriculum. There is no residency requirement for students enrolled in the BTPS degree program. If I am enrolled in the BA program, can I still take classes online? Yes. Many students enrolled in the BA program complete coursework from our fully online classes. Students should consult with an advisor for information on specific classes and how they fit into their desired majors. How do National Labor College courses work? The National Labor College offer three semesters a year: fall, spring, and summer. BA courses are delivered in a blended format comprised of both online and face‐to‐ face instruction. The online portions of the class are delivered on through the Blackboard website. The semesters for both the BA and BTPS programs run concurrently for a period of 16 weeks (14 consecutive weeks of instruction followed by a 2 week reading and grading period). Students enrolled in low residency BA courses are required to attend the week‐in‐residence which is typically scheduled during the fourth week of the semester. What is the schedule during the week in residence? During the week‐in‐residence, courses run consecutively throughout the day during three time blocks: 8:00‐ 11:00 a.m.; 11:15 p.m.‐3:15 p.m. (with an hour lunch break) and 3:30 until 6:30 p.m. The first class session begins on Saturday at 3:30 p.m. and is followed by two classes the following Sunday from 8:00 a.m.‐3:15 p.m. Classes run all day from 8:00 a.m. until 6:30 p.m. Monday through Thursday, and from 8:00 a.m.‐3:15 p.m. on Friday. New students must attend the orientation at 1:30 p.m. on Saturday. For reservations and room rates, please call 800-462-4237. 2 How do I use blackboard? The Blackboard system is the host server for all of NLCs’ online content. In order to use Blackboard you will need to create a username and password that is different from the one for IQ web. For details on how to use the Blackboard server log onto http://www.nlc.edu/bbsupport/studentmanual.htm. How long will it take to finish my degree? How long it takes largely depends on the number of credits that you are able to transfer in towards the 120 credits needed for a BA or BTPS degree. It will also depend on the rate at which you complete your coursework and the number of classes you take each semester. Students who take 2 or more courses every semester may be able to complete the 30 NLC in as little as a year or more depending upon their ability to complete the required coursework. ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS What credits do I need for admission to the National Labor College? The Bachelor of Arts program requires the applicant have at least 56 credit hours to be fully admitted to a degree program. The Bachelor of Technical/Professional Studies (BTPS) program requires the applicant to have at least 45 credit hours to be fully admitted. Can I still take classes at NLC if I have less than 56 credits? Yes, anyone may take classes as a non‐degree student until they have earned enough credits to meet the requirements for admission. Many students are concurrently enrolled in community colleges, or apprenticeships while taking classes at NLC. The NLC is an upper‐division, degree completion institution and students are expected to perform academically at the level of a college junior or senior. While students may be able to earn credit for their prior learning through the NLC, many students find it helpful to complete their general education coursework requirements (i.e., English, Math, Science, Humanities, and Social Science) at their local community college. If you have questions about whether NLC’s upper‐level degree completion program is the best first step for you, contact the Academic Services Department at [email protected] to speak with a pre‐admissions advisor. How do I apply to the National Labor College? You can locate our application form on our website at www.nlc.edu and click on the IQWeb to set up a student account. Or, you may download a printed application from our website at http://www.nlc.edu/campusFacilities/registrarOffice.html and fax or mail it to us. In addition you will need to send the following information to our admissions department: • Proof of completion of high school degree or GED. • Copy of your union membership card, to be eligible for the AFL‐CIO subsidized tuition rate. • All transcripts from other colleges you have attended. (If you have served in the military, AARTS or SMARTS transcripts (see details under section on military transcripts) or a copy of your DD214.) • If you have completed an academically assessed apprenticeship program, send a copy of your Completion of Apprenticeship certificate, or ACE transcript, or community college transcript with your apprenticeship work on it. • If you have taken courses through any of our academic or union partnerships (see partnership discussion below), contact your union and/or academic institution to send your transcripts to the Registrar. For questions regarding admissions policies, the status of your application or how to set up your account on IQ web, contact Karen Banks at 301‐431‐5422 or [email protected]. 3 How do I register for classes? 1.

  • Joint Union–Management Workforce Development Model
    CHAPTER 9 Joint Union–Management Workforce Development Model DANIEL MARSCHALL Ellen Scully-Russ The George Washington University In their early synthesis of the features shared by joint training programs, Ferman, Hoyman and Cutcher-Gershenfeld (1990) argued that such programs, as they emerged from the industrial restructuring of the 1980s, represented a distinctive innovation in worker training and career development with the potential to become “a stable and significant domain” in labor–management relations. The authors described joint training programs as an emerging set of institutional arrangements that included large-scale, negotiated, and jointly administered trust funds providing technical training, personal development, and access to education for union members. Though there were many examples of joint union–manage- ment training activity prior to the appearance of the industrial joint training program model, earlier programs were narrowly focused on sin- gle-issue training or time-bounded training efforts. In contrast, the new model spanned many areas of training activity, covered divergent popu- lations of workers and managers, and incorporated service delivery strategies guided by a philosophy of worker involvement and jointly determined decision making. Among other research implications, the authors identified the classification of joint training activities as a chal- lenge for understanding the structural tendencies within these young organizations. Notably, the authors speculated that the emergence of these innovative joint
