Harvard Trade Union Program’s Alumni Association (HTUPAA)

Who We Are

Harvard Trade Union Program Alumni Association (HTUPAA) is comprised of graduates of the Harvard University Trade Union Program (HTUP), an intensive five-week executive training program for trade union leaders. Since 1942, HTUP has been preparing union leadership for the challenges of today and tomorrow.

Mission

HTUPAA was founded to maintain and deepen relationships formed within each HTUP class and to create a strong network of HTUP alumni. An HTUPAA scholarship was established by alumni so that all union brothers and sisters can attend and experience the HTUP regardless of financial resources.

Activities

HTUP alumni are invited to the annual HTUP welcome dinner for the incoming HTUP class and the annual HTUP commencement ceremony to meet new HTUP members and other alumni. HTUPAA hosts an anniversary celebration every five years – a weekend of lectures, workshops, and social events for alumni to reconnect with familiar classmates and make new friends. HTUP’s 80th-anniversary celebration was held in September 2022.
