Internships are often regarded as something out of reach for the typical grassroots group, local political party, or low-profile campaigns. The common (and false) assumption is that in order to have a thriving internship, there has to be a lot of money, people, and name recognition.

This first-of-its-kind webinar will help your operation of any size break through the perceived obstacles to starting and running an effective internship program. You will learn from Eric Dutra, the Campaign Manager behind a highly-effective field operation in California. In 2020, he ran the largest internship program in the country with over 200 high school interns. Now, he's here to teach you how to become a legend in your own right.

Whether you’re a candidate, campaign staffer, partisan organization leader, or a grassroots group, you cannot afford to overlook internships! You will learn from a master how to:

🚀 Recruit from high schools and colleges campus, and build community between them

🚀 Understand essential features and responsibilities of an internship program

🚀 Provide lasting benefit to interns themselves, and to the host organization

🚀 Keep high-performers in the pipeline for leadership and staff roles

🚀 Operate a low-budget but high impact program that exceeds the results 

Eric will reveal how the principles of a gold standard internship can be applied in between elections, without relying on a high-profile or high-budget campaign.

This training begins at 6:00 pm pacific / 9:00 pm eastern and will be about an hour and a half long, plus possible additional time for questions and answers
