Education and Training

Interested in starting a campaign training program?  Let our experienced team assist you and your organization/institution in developing a Ready to Run™ program tailored to the political culture in your state. CAWP has spent ten years testing and honing the program, so you can hit the ground running with resources and a network of partners at your service! 
 

CAWP looks for Ready to Run™ Training Network partners who can demonstrate:

• The potential for building strong partnerships with other organizations and institutions in the state or region;
• Access to women in public leadership, campaign professionals, and party and community leaders;
• Bi-partisan or non-partisan status;
• Institutional support for a staff member to take the lead in organizing and overseeing the project; and
• A proven track record in raising funds to support similar projects, or the support of the institution to undertake such fundraising.

CAWP provides our partners with a training manual, ongoing consultation (including an in-person consultation), Ready to Run™ artwork for use in program materials, a database of workshop trainers, free materials for distribution to program participants, and connections with other Training Network partners.
