Become a CPI Fellow

Our fellowships are oriented toward helping conservatives become leaders, policy professionals, and effective communicators.

Conservative Partnership Academy offers three fellowships.


 

The “Magnus Fellowship” is geared towards seasoned staffers. This fellowship will equip you with the skills to be a leader in the conservative movement. From how to establish good office culture, to how to manage a budget, to understanding many of the organizations and individuals that make up the conservative movement in D.C., the curriculum is carefully selected to ensure a solid preparation for the next step in your career leading a congressional office or a conservative organization.
The “Intrepidus Fellowship” is geared towards conservative policy staff. This fellowship will prepare the next generation of conservative policy professionals. From the 2nd Amendment, to foreign policy, to energy policy, the curriculum is designed to introduce you to the major policy areas in which Congress and the conservative movement engage. During each session, you will meet leading conservative policy analysts and engage in robust discussions designed to grow your awareness of what conservative policy is and looks like.
The “Veritas Fellowship” is geared towards conservative communications professionals. This fellowship will prepare you by growing your skill base and expanding your ability to effectively communicate on conservative issues. From digital media training, to meeting bookers and editors, to diving into emerging communications trends, you will exit this fellowship ready for the next step in your career.

All Conservative Partnership Academy fellowships require successful completion of all monthly CPI courses and educational retreats.

These monthly commitments will vary by topic, but participants can expect 2-4 hours of programming each session. The dates and times aim to be compatible with federal holidays and major events in the Washington, D.C. area, including the congressional calendar, and are typically on Thursday and Friday afternoons.

For continued participation in the program, each fellow will be required to be at the November Bellator Awards Dinner, full participation in the first off-site retreat in February (Monday-Wednesday / Wednesday-Friday), and attendance in each month’s programmatic sessions.
