Training and Support for Candidates

If you are considering running for office, there are many resources available to you.  To successfully run for office, candidates need money, mentoring, and a strong team.  

Training programs teach the nuts and bolts of campaigns, fundraising practices, public speaking practices, media skills, and direct voter contact methods.  They are also a way to build your political network.  They may or may not be partisan or coach candidates on issues.  Whatever your needs are, chances are there’s a program for you.   

One of the most important resources for a candidate is her team, which may consist of both paid consultants and volunteers.  It is important that candidates have options to choose from so that they can find the best fit for their campaign. 

SC Women in Leadership is invested in filling the pipeline with leaders who are ready to serve their communities and build skills for future opportunities.
