For over 60 years the Cornell ILR School and its Extension division have provided support, education and scholarship to assist working people in ensuring their rights on the job, and building effective organizations and strong communities. ILR Extension Labor Programs are designed to deepen the knowledge and strengthen the skills of union leaders and activists, as well as unorganized workers interested in joining together for protection and benefits on the job.

Partnering with unions and other worker-focused organizations, ILR Extension labor faculty conduct critical research, provide comprehensive education and training, and offer a variety of customized services focused on labor, employment and workplace issues.
