Power Analysis Workshop Application






The deadline to apply is Friday, November 6, 2026. To give yourselves time to prepare, and if your organization would like scholarship consideration, we encourage you to apply earlier. Organizations are required to send groups of 3-6 people; individuals will not be accepted to the workshop. Each team will need to have a group coordinator, who will facilitate breakout exercises in their group, relay key course information, and schedule campaign practice meetings in between the main sessions. The group coordinator does not need to have previous experience with Power Analysis, and will attend a short orientation ahead of the course.

Please contact Program Coordinator Elizabeth Avila at eavilaa@berkeley.edu if you have any questions and include “Winter Power Analysis” in the subject line.

Getting to know your work
Power Analysis is designed to be immediately relevant to your work. Groups will need to come with a set of issues your organization seeks to address, or a campaign you are planning or already working on.

If other geographical scope, please describe:

If the campaign has not begun, please describe your anticipated launch date.
