I am very excited to announce that we’re bringing even more trainings to Netroots Nation this year. This year we’re upping our game and piloting a Master Class program – a special training program focused on the specific tools that organizers use every day.
We’ve asked the tool providers to lead training sessions designed to help intermediate users become power users. Our goal is to help organizers like you become more efficient and effective. The lineup includes sessions on the following tools: Facebook Ads, BSD Tools, Salsa, NGP VAN, Nationbuilder and Google Analytics & Adwords.
Movement building and making progressive change fundamentally begins with mapping key influencers, persuading people to join you and managing your database. In this interview Kate Maedar talks about targeting people with political-social influence and leveraging low-cost online/offline tactics and “social norms” to activate a community/electorate – the topic of her upcoming Netroots Nation training.
Often, the policy world is disconnected from the work organizers do on the ground. This interview with Jessica Adair touches on how communications teams can build bridges between the two worlds, and elevate issues to mainstream and online media – the topic of her upcoming Netroots Nation training.
So you want to do graphic design work but don’t know where to begin?

Every email list is different, so how do you know what messaging will motivate your supporters the most? What subject lines will grab their attention? Which email layout will get them to click through? Here’s the good news: the answers to those questions are a simple test away.
In this interview Damien Shirley of Chapman Cubine Adams + Hussey talks about email testing – the subject of his upcoming training at Netroots Nation 2014.
