  3. CUPE BC K12 Bargaining Update • Both sides exchanged packages and engaged in focused discussions. • BCPSEA began to narrow its priorities as both parties identified key issues. • CUPE’s Bargaining Committee continued to push for more professional and skills development as well as recognition and respect for Education Assistants (specifically more hours for current EAs).

  4. CUPE BC K12 Bargaining Update • Both parties focused on renewing the work of the Support Staff Education and Adjustment Committee (SSEAC). • SSEAC was created following the 2006 round of collective bargaining. It is a joint initiative between the employers’ association and CUPE as well as other K-12 support staff unions. • SSEAC sets specific criteria to allocate skills development funds for members.

  5. CUPE BC K12 Bargaining Update • The Provincial Bargaining Committee remains committed to securing a provincial settlement that will make gains on key priorities without taking concessions. • When both provincial and local bargaining concludes, the provincial settlement and the local settlement will together renew local collective agreements following ratification by CUPE members in each local.
