Cornerstone Solutions Partners with National Association of REALTORS® for Second Year

RALEIGH, N.C. - Jan. 6, 2014 - PRLog -- Cornerstone Solutions, a national full service political consulting and public affairs firm, is pleased to announce that it is continuing its partnership with the National Association of REALTORS® to provide candidate training schools throughout the country to members of the National Association of REALTORS®. This is the second full year that Cornerstone has been asked to work with the National Association of REALTORS® to teach these schools.  Candidate Training Schools in Northern Florida, Greater Philadelphia, North Texas and San Diego have already been scheduled for the first quarter of 2014.

“We are honored to continue our partnership with the National Association of REALTORS®. We look forward to bringing our expertise and knowledge of running campaigns and elections to the National Association of REALTORS’® Candidate Training Academy. This program has been an effective tool in training realtors and those in the real estate industry the fundamentals of running effective campaigns on the local level,” stated Chris Sinclair, partner, Cornerstone Solutions.

The Candidate Training Academy was developed to give realtors and those in the real estate industry an introduction on how to run campaigns and run for elected office. The goal of the program is to give candidates who understand the importance of the real estate industry and its impact on the economy a valuable leg up in launching their political careers. Topics covered include campaign planning and budgeting, research and targeting, fundraising, how to communicate with voters specifically through digital media, and Get out the Vote strategies.

Cornerstone Solutions was selected for the second year in a row to conduct the Candidate Training Academy because of their extensive experience in running bipartisan campaign schools at trade schools at the local, state and national levels, including the REALTOR® associations.
