PSA delegates represent you

Your union represents your interests at meetings with the Department of Education called Joint Consultative Committees (JCC). The purpose of a JCC is to establish a regular forum for issues and concerns to be raised and addressed collaboratively.

If you have collective workplace issues you would like raised at your next JCC get in contact with one of the Advisory Group delegates close to you.

If you would like an Organiser to visit your school, send an email to schools@psa.asn.au for more information.

Are you a SAO working in Science?

If you haven’t let us know yet that you are a SAO working in science email us now at schools@psa.asn.au so you can stay up to date with our PSA Bulletins specific for SAO’s working in science.

Free PSA training courses for members and delegates
