| IAM sisters, taking part in Employee Assistance Program I (EAP-I) training at the William W. Winpisinger (WWW) Center, strike a “Rosie the Riveter” pose in commemoration of Women’s History Month. |
According to field experts and a wide range of professionals, the IAM is the only organization – union, business or government – in North America that conducts this type education. The EAP-I program was first conducted at WWW in 2008, and has since expanded to four comprehensive, college-accredited levels (EAP-I, EAP-II, EAP-III and EAP-IV).
At the close of the successful weeklong EAP-I session, several IAM sisters gathered for a “Rosie the Riveter” photo to commemorate Women’s History Month and the importance of women being active in the labor movement.
The EAP-I class was the first held under the new directorship of IAM Retirees, Community and Member Services Department Director Carlos San Miguel, Jr.
