The National Association of REALTORS® Candidate Training Academy

The Candidate Training Academy was developed to give REALTORS® , REALTOR®-friendly candidates and those interested in running for political office an introduction to and expectation of how run for elected office. It is intended to give candidates a valuable head start in their political journeys, as well as information on how to run successful campaigns.

This day-long program is typically run by the state or local association, either with an NAR provided facilitator, or one provided by the association. NAR has conveniently established a “core” curriculum which consists of seven chapters. There are two additional chapters which are available for associations to use, as well, if necessary. Associations may use the outlined core curriculum, or pick and choose the curriculum which best suites their candidates’ needs. Materials are available from NAR at no cost to associations and are provided as a direct result of the REALTOR® Party Initiative.
