Benefits of Membership

It makes sense for all workers in education to be part of one large democratic union representing their interests.

In recent years AEU members have successfully campaigned for improvements in wages, conditions and curriculum entitlements. AEU staff have a detailed knowledge of the education system and are well placed to give advice and information quickly and efficiently.

AEU services to members include:

Legal assistance

Industrial representation

Advisory services

Training & Professional development

Casual relief support

Travel and accommodation when attending union activity

Publications

Workplace visits

Health benefits

Low cost banking

Insurance cover

API card
