Providing Educational Opportunities in the Workplace
Worker Education Program (WEP), is a non-profit workplace education program. The mission of WEP is to provide worker-centered educational and training opportunities to entry-level unionized workers. WEP partners with employers and unions to offer classes that help workers communicate better in English, increase their literacy skills, improve their math, acquire high school diplomas, explore career advancement, or prepare for college. Since 1991, WEP has served over 4,000 Massachusetts workers.
WEP currently offers 12 classes at five sites. WEP classes are funded by grants from the Massachusetts Department of Secondary and Elementary Education, English for New Bostonians, and First Literacy. WEP is a provider for the 1199SEIU Training and Upgrading Fund Massachusetts Division.
