Is That Your Final Answer? A Query Builder Game

Join us for a hands-on workshop where we’ll learn how to use the query builder, followed by a quiz game. We’ll use a sample campaign to answer questions such as:

• Who signed the most recent petition but did not attend the rally last week?

• What is the most common workplace issue that our members care about?

• Who at my worksite is not currently a union member?
