      The IWW offers organizer 101 training to members, they can be a great option even for unemployed people to learn effective organizing.

        Thank you for pointing this out.

        IWW offers organizer 101 training Training site: ~~ https://archive.iww.org/organize/training/ ~~ https://www.iww.org/ (Need a login for the course info.)

        Joining is just signing up and paying dues. ~~ https://archive.iww.org/content/join-one-big-union/ ~~ https://www.iww.org/ I have no idea how much the dues are. As they are attempting world wide, I assume they vary based on location.

        Edit: Replacing the archive site with the current site. Thanks to ProdigalFrog for pointing this out.

          The archive site is not their current website, you can find the active site at https://www.iww.org/

          Dues start at $11 US dollars per month there for lower income folks, but as you say, they may vary depending on if you have a local branch in a different country.
