A record number of women are running for political office in 2018. WGR is thrilled to partner with The Graduate School of Political Management on Ready to Run: Campaign Training for Women.
Do you aspire to:
- Run for office in 2018?
- Start preparing for a future run for public office?
- Work or volunteer on a political campaign?
- Become more politically active?
Then plan to attend the first ever “Ready to Run” workshop in Washington, D.C., hosted by The Graduate School of Political Management on Saturday, March 3 from 8 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. on GW's main campus in DC. This event is poised to be the largest gathering of women's politics and advocacy groups in Washington.
You'll learn from the top practitioners and consultants from both sides of the aisle about how to run a political campaign. And you’ll meet key officials from political parties and groups who support women candidates.
This one-day bipartisan women's political leadership training program, developed at the Center for American Women & Politics at Rutgers, will help you prepare for the 2018 elections, either as a candidate or as a campaign staffer/volunteer.
Tentative agenda will include:
- Why You Should Run
- Laying the Groundwork for Public Life
- Building Your Campaign
- Delivering Your Campaign Message with Confidence
- Key Elements of a Winning Campaign
- How to Raise Money
- Breakout Sessions: Building Your Tribe
