Sorensen's Candidate Training Program in the News
The Sorensen Institute's Candidate Training Program was the subject of news coverage this past weekend. Network TV affiliates in both the Charlottesville and Richmond markets reported on the history and success of the program.
CBS 19 in Charlottesville reported that The Executive Director of the Sorensen Institute believes the program in its 12th year is unique."It's
not a program for campaign managers, or press secretaries. This is a
program for candidates, so everybody who is that room, is thinking
about this in terms of their personal life, and how this is going to
affect them going forward," said Sean O'Brien. The program teaches the "nuts and bolts" of an ethical and powerful campaign. It
has seen 43 graduates over the years. Six of them are currently
serving in the House of Delegates, and 21 have been appointed to boards
and commissions by the governor.
