This change became effective December 27, 2005. However, successful completion of the course does not guarantee a place on the FMCS Roster. The course can also enhance the practice and skills of current arbitrators.
Please Note: The staff and faculty for the Labor Arbitration course require a clear bio of your Collective Bargaining Experience to be completed and submitted prior to acceptance to the course, if you intend to apply for placement on the FMCS Arbitrator Roster. This bio must outline, unambiguously, your years of collective bargaining experience.
