On March 8, the University of Manitoba Faculty Association (UMFA) reached a tentative agreement with the university’s administration, the UMFA announced in an email early Saturday morning.

The UMFA is the certified bargaining unit for the 1,300 professors, instructors and librarians at the University of Manitoba. Its members will vote to approve the deal on March 13.

The tentative agreement ensures U of M students will be able to continue their term uninterrupted.

“I am delighted that we were able to arrive at a tentative agreement that improves our members’ working conditions without disrupting our students’ education,” said UMFA president Erik Thomson in the email.
