Mock Bargaining Guide  Tags: collective bargaining  

Welcome to the Mock Bargaining Guide!  This guide is especially geared to Cornell ILR School students taking part in the mock bargaining exercises for collective bargaining classes.  However, many of the resources listed are available via the Internet and will be helpful to any union or management negotiator.  Another ILR Collective Bargaining guide is more general in nature and provides help for academic researchers interested in the field.
