Basebuilding Training

Designed to cover the fundamentals of building organized people power, canvassers and organizers and any other staff with similar responsibilities can expect lots of hands-on-practice with the fundamentals. This training particularly emphasizes role plays and live practice out in the real world. This is a three-day training, no overnight.

Because space is limited, we may not be able to accept everyone who applies. Please tell us a little bit about yourself and why you want to come to the training.

We aim to offer these trainings to as many people as possible to strengthen the progressive movement. While there are costs involved—staff time, food, venue rental, and materials—the fee we’re asking for covers the basics. However, we don’t want cost to be a barrier for anyone. If you can’t pay the full amount, simply pay what you can afford. And if you’re unable to pay at all, please apply anyway—we’ll do our best to accommodate you! If accepted into the program, the trainer will discuss with you about payment options and sliding fees.

Apply here! Deadline to apply is Tuesday, May 6, 2025.
