New Academic Year to Support More Respect for the Teaching Profession
Last February 7 and 8, delegates from 59 federation unions held an important meeting to mark the launch of a text entitled “Teaching at the College Level... Profile of the Profession” produced in collaboration with the CPNC. On this occasion, the delegations adopted a declaration entitled “A Plea for More Respect for the Cegep Teaching Profession” and also agreed to work together so as to communicate to the Government of Quebec the need to give teachers the means necessary to do the work expected of them and to recognize college teachers for their proper value. This decision prompted a series of actions that we would like to write about here.
In the Intersyndical Newsletter, you will find not only a balance sheet of the campaign, but also what is going on around the issue for more respect for the Teaching Profession.
