Induction
Duration ONE DAY
If you’ve just started in your role working for an MP, this programme is for you.
Who should attend?
If you are new to the role of working for an MP you can't afford to miss the Induction course to help you to hit the ground running. If you are not able to schedule an induction course for yourself immediately, have a look at W4MP’s ‘survival’ guides. For new staff after the 2010 election W4MP have prepared a booklet which you should have received already in your induction pack from the House of Commons. There is an online version at www.w4mp.org/html/library/2010booklet/index.asp.
