The BLET Education & Training Department continues to leverage the technological advances incorporated into the National Division Training Center by expanding avenues to provide critical information to BLET officers. The Department hosted a hybrid training class for 21 LM-2 filers during the week of February 26, with most participating in person at the Training Center and others virtually via Zoom.
The workshop was geared toward Secretary-Treasurers who file the U.S. Department of Labor’s annual LM-2 report on behalf of their General Committee of Adjustment, Local Division, or State Legislative Board. Leading the class were Sister Megan C. Mead, Director of the BLET Record and Compliance Department, David P. Estes, BLET National Secretary-Treasurer, and Walt Schmidt, Director of the BLET Online Services Department. Representatives from the Department of Labor were also on hand to offer best practices regarding the preparation of LM-2 reports.
“While in-person training is preferred, the hybrid approach allows members to participate who otherwise might not be able to attend,” said Brother Estes, who also heads the Education & Training Department.
