Save Alberta Advanced Education
Your AUPE Local Executive and the Local 071 Strategic Planning and Policy Committee are excited to announce a contest for all AUPE Local 071 members - and all you have to do to enter is register for a MyAUPE account - and if you already have registered, you are already entered!
Every Chapter in Local 071 will have three draws for $100 Guusto gift cards for lucky recipients who have registered for a MyAUPE account. Guusto gift cards can be used at over 80 retail outlets, including grocery stores, big box retailers, restaurants, and even vacation providers! And every one of our members has a chance to WIN - as long as they have a MyAUPE account!

In 2020, AUPE launched a new website, and with it, an online MyAUPE tool for all AUPE members to use. But why would you want to sign up for MyAUPE? Well, because MyAUPE:
Will host voting for your Chapters next ratified Collective Bargaining Agreement.
Easily manage your membership information, like your contact information, and your communications preferences.
Strike Pay - ensure that you receive your strike pay by having a MyAUPE account and sending in the necessary documents.
Make it faster and easier to look up important information, like your Collective Bargaining Agreements (CBA’s).
So how do you enter? It’s easy, just sign up for a MyAUPE Account! And if you already have a MyAUPE Account, you are already entered! That’s all you have to do. Once the contest closes, Local Executive will request a list of all members who have a MyAUPE account in each Chapter, and we will make a blind draw for one lucky recipient from each Chapter!

10,000 AUPE members work at universities, colleges, technical institutes, and trade schools across Alberta. We’re proud of the what we do and the value our work contributes to Alberta’s post- secondary institutions. But Alberta’s UCP government is slashing advanced education, creating countless job losses and program closures. AUPE members are organizing to protect each other and reverse the cuts. Join the fight to Save Advanced Education!
This campaign, authorized by Public Interest Alberta, is an effort of a coalition of organizations representing over 154,000 undergraduate and graduate students, over 11,000 faculty and instructors, and over 13,000 support staff in Alberta’s post-secondary education system.
