What is an "SPD?"

"SPD" is short for "Summary Plan Description." An SPD is the booklet which describes the rules of a plan of benefits—including eligibility, coverage, how to file claims, any required co-pays, etc.

The Building Service 32BJ Thomas Shortman Training, Scholarship and Safety Fund (Shortman Fund) provides training to eligible members of Local 32BJ in English as a Second Language, industry skills, and computer skills. It also provides college and graduate scholarships to eligible members and their eligible dependents. This website includes the Summary Plan Description (SPD) for the Shortman Fund , which provides information about eligibility and benefits. Eligibility is determined by the collective bargaining agreement covering you at work. Not all members of 32BJ are covered by this Fund. Some are covered by other training funds. Check the Plan Finder for a guide to which plan may cover you. For more information, check the Contact Information section.
