The Atlantic Regional Executive is looking for volunteers to participate as members of the Atlantic Young Professionals Committee (AYPC).

All Atlantic members in good standing are welcome to put their names forward, but preference will be given to members under 40 years of age.  Ideally, the committee will consist of 8 youth, two from each Atlantic province, along with the Atlantic Regional Director and one member of the Atlantic Regional Executive.  

For the upcoming two-year term there are four positions. Terms will commence on October 25, 2024, at the AYPC’s meeting in Halifax, NS.

The Committee's Mandate is to advise the Regional Executive on matters related to young professionals, increase confidence, skills, and knowledge regarding the union among young professionals and mobilize young professionals to play a role in building the union for the future.  Attached, for your information, is a copy of the AYPC’s Terms of Reference.

Objectives of the Committee include but are not limited to identifying barriers, advocating on behalf of young professionals, raising issues specific to young professionals, fostering relationships with like-minded community groups, outreach to young professionals in the workplace and educating the youth on the union and its benefits.
