The Master Class program is focused on the specific tools that organizers use every day, and helping intermediate users become efficient, effective power users.
Action Network is a mission-driven nonprofit organizing toolset by and for progressives. The toolset includes petitions, forms, fundraising, events, and a state-of-the-art mailer, along with unique ways to collaborate with allies. In this session – fit for new and advanced users alike – you’ll learn how to use our groups tool for federated organizing and tips for using our embeddable widgets to collaborate and blow up your actions. You’ll also be among the first to learn our new features, including our new full-layout widget.
