AMPAC Announces In-Person 2024 Campaign School for Aspiring Political Leaders
AMPAC is excited to announce that the 2024 Campaign School will return in person from July 25 to 28 at the AMA offices in Washington, DC!
Running an effective campaign can be the difference between winning and losing a race. That’s why the Campaign School is designed to give you the skills and strategic approach you will need on the campaign trail. Our team of political experts will teach you everything you need to know to run a successful campaign. Under the direction of our lead trainers, participants will be broken into campaign staff teams to run a simulated congressional campaign using what they’ve learned during group sessions on strategy, vote targeting, social media, advertising, and more.
Attendees may include physicians, spouses of physicians, residents, medical students, and state medical society staff interested in becoming more involved in politics. Participants range from those attracted to grassroots efforts to those considering becoming a candidate for public office. No matter where you are in the process, you will develop a new understanding of how campaigns are run. As a graduate of the AMPAC program, candidates will rely on you to advise them on strategy, message, and campaign plans.
Please note the following:
- The Candidate Workshop is open to AMA physician members, member spouses, residents, medical students, and state medical society staff.
- The registration fee is $350 for AMA members and member spouses and $1000 for non-AMA members. This fee is waived for AMA residents and students; however, space is limited, and the AMPAC Board will review and select four participants from the pool of qualified resident and student applicants.
- The AMA covers faculty, materials, and all meals during the meeting. Participants are responsible for their registration fee, travel to/from Washington, DC, and hotel accommodations (AMPAC staff will provide you with a list of nearby hotels within walking distance of the AMA offices).
- Participants will be required to bring a laptop, or Wi-Fi-enabled tablet with them.
Registration for the 2024 Campaign School is now OPEN. Space is limited, and the deadline to register is July 1 (or sooner if maximum capacity is reached).
