The Certificate in Labor Relations, offered through an educational partnership between Cornell University’s School of Industrial and Labor Relations and CUNY SPS’ Joseph S. Murphy Institute, provides NYC-area union members, officers, and staff with practical knowledge, skills, and resources needed to be effective practitioners in the field of labor and industrial relations.

The program is designed to provide students with skills in the area of collective bargaining, organizing, labor law, arbitration, contract negotiation, organizational administration and leadership development. The certificate helps prepare students for careers in the areas of union organizing, labor relations, strategic research, employment law, and mediation.
