1. Attend a minimum of three hour up-date training provided by the Local union Training Facility.

2. Individuals providing documented evidence they have worked as a foreman for at least 1500 hours during their four-year certification period and have previously taken the foreman certification exam will be recertified as a UA Foreman. (Form from UA website)
