The International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM) Retirees & Membership Services Department held a week-long training session at the William Winpisinger Education and Technology Center in Maryland. The purpose of the class was to assist members in forming retiree clubs at both district and local levels.
According to the department, this initiative aims to strengthen retiree activism, provide additional resources for retirees, and promote mentorship opportunities for younger union members. The program is part of an ongoing effort to increase the involvement and presence of retired IAM members within the organization.
