About ND United

Purpose and Power in Community
North Dakota United (NDU) was created in 2013 as a result of a merger between the North Dakota Education Association (NDEA) and the North Dakota Public Employees Association (NDPEA).
The Representative Assemblies of both organizations voted overwhelmingly in February 2013 for the merger. All of the members of our union work together to provide public education and public services to every citizen of North Dakota.

Our Leaders

We Can't Do It Without You

The foremost benefit of your membership in NDU is your combined power, at the negotiating table with school boards, in the halls of the state Legislature, and in the decision-making process when elected officials and administrators are determining your pay, benefits and terms of employment.
