Spring Training Series

Progress Toronto is offering 7 free trainings and workshops for our 2022 Spring Training Series - City Election Edition. All of our trainings are happening online and some have an in-person element where you get to practice your new skills and debrief with us after. Having the chance to apply our trainings is the best way to learn.

Toronto’s municipal elections kicked off on Monday May 2 and wrap up on Monday October 24, 2022. This is our opportunity to change who holds local power in our city and elect new city councillors and school board trustees who will prioritize the issues that Torontonians care about most.

Join our training series to learn the skills and tools you need to help inspiring progressive candidates win across the city. This season’s workshops include how to knock on doors for a candidate, how to make calls for a candidate, how to get the vote out for a candidate, fundraising for a candidate, and more!

You can sign up for any session and all workshops are free. See the full list below and click to find out more. A big thank you to our Spring Training Sponsor the Toronto & York Region Labour Council for help making these trainings possible.

We offer our trainings for free so that cost isn’t a barrier. If you can, support our work by chipping in $10 to our Training Fund or by donating when you sign up.
