Then you need to apply for this course!

Part of the course will take place at two in-person sessions across two separate Saturdays (11th January and 15th February), you must attend these sessions to graduate.  All the in-person session will take place in Leeds city centre, close to the train station and at an accessible venue. 

All refreshments have been prepaid by Yorkshire and the Humber Regional Labour Party, therefore other than travel costs, this course is FREE to successful applicants. 

There will also be four Zoom sessions plus other challenges and homework, so please consider this before you sign up.

In order to benefit from the trajectory of the course, participants must attend every session, so please only apply if you can commit to ALL the dates/times:

From experience we know there will be high demand for this course, which has limited places, hence why we have a rigorous application process. 

We advise you to get your application in as soon as possible, think about your strengths and weaknesses, shout about your achievements, share your aspirations and let us know how our training may assist you in the future, all within the application form. 

You will need to provide one Labour Party referee for your application to be considered - this should be a branch/CLP officer, Councillor, MP or other Labour Party officer. You CANNOT be your own referee. 

Applicants must be living in the Yorkshire and Humber Labour region. You should submit the completed application form by 9am on 25 November 2024.  Please note that there is no flexibility in the deadline, and it will not be extended for any individual. Applicants will be notified of the outcome of their applications in December 2024.
