This free half-day program will show you how to:

  • Conduct a proper LJAB hearing

  • Maintain arbitrational immunity

You’ll also learn how to prepare for complex legal issues that often accompany grievances. Plus, you will leave knowing how to draft binding decisions. There is no charge for this program, so please inform your LJAB management members about this training opportunity and plan to attend.
