instructeur
Maître de cérémonie semble très improbable dans ce contexte; en revanche il existe dans les syndicats des personnes chargées de former et d'informer les travailleurs sur certains aspects fondamentaux, comme leurs droits, mais aussi la sécurité ou la santé.

Without more context. It is not "maître de cérémonies", unless perhaps the English is a poor translation from another language.
