Careers in Politics Workshop
Political Institute for Women
According to the Center for Responsive Politics the 2012 election was the most expensive in history with some $6 billion being raised and spent. The political sector is thriving and filled with opportunities for women not just as candidates but professionals. The Political Institute for Women trains women not just to run for office but to put their finance, marketing, communications, public relations and management skills to work in the political sector.
The Careers in Politics Workshop is for women considering careers in politics. Sessions cover every specialty from fundraising to advocacy to social media consulting. You pick the dates you want to attend!
