Registration is now open for the free UA/MCAA Labor Relations Conference, “Highlighting Best Practices,” Nov. 14-15 at The Mirage in Las Vegas.

At a recent conference held for MCAA's Local Affiliated Association Executives, Mark McManus UA general president, Mike Pleasant UA assistant general president, Greg Fuller MCAA president and Mark Rogers MCAA Joint Strategic Planning Committee co-chair, addressed attendees and focused on the importance of maximum attendance from both UA and MCAA members.

To help achieve this goal, both groups are waiving the conference registration fee.

The program will feature several UA/MCAA panel discussions that will explore the theme and focus on specific projects and areas across the country.

Attendees will also hear an encouraging story from 2nd generation pipefitter and member of UA Local 633, Jason Koger, the first double amputee to be fitted with bionic arms in the world.

Also, Mark Breslin, who is noted as the No. 1 industry speaker in the nation on change management, leadership, strategy and labor management, will also join the group for a keynote address.

Attendees are encouraged to hold joint UA/MCA dinners Wednesday evening and should not plan on departing before the morning of Nov. 16.
