Carlsbad Negotiating Teams Get Trained for IBB

On June 8, 2009 teams for NEA and the Carlsbad school district will be trained in Interest-Based Bargaining at a special session from 4:30 to 7 p.m. at the district's central office in Carlsbad. David Martinez, a mediator, will conduct the training. A total of twelve people are expected to participate. The training is expected to make bargaining more efficient because members of both teams will be familiar with the principles associated with IBB and they will have shared the same basic training.
