Negotiations
Joint University/Association Committee: As part of completing the Basic Agreement Bargaining, the parties will now begin the process of meeting to discuss negotiating non-monetary items for the APSA membership. JUAC is in the process of selecting an external mediator to support this committee. The committee met last month and will meet this month before our Winter closure.
