Bargaining, Organising & Campaigning Around AI and Data

A two-day in person course for union reps and activists to build confidence on how AI is changing our workplaces and world, and how unions can utilise digital tech to build power. The course combines two key themes: organising on AI and organising with AI.

Organising on AI cuts through the hype to demystify AI and to critically understand the political context of technological change, and to dig into strategies and tools for collectively challenging and negotiating with the employer. Organising with AI introduces the technical background to AI and how unions are leveraging these tools to make our organisations more effective, including driving ballot turn out and member communications.

The course will use interactive exercises and applied learning so that reps and activists come away feeling confident and empowered to negotiate and bargain with the employer around these critically important issues, and to advocate for responsible and effective use of these tools within unions.
