SOA Oversight Training Program
Enroll now!
What is it?
The Levin Center for Oversight and Democracy launched the State Oversight Academy (SOA) in March 2023 to build a national community dedicated to advancing bipartisan, fact-based oversight at the state level. Our online Oversight Training Program brings an in-depth SOA workshop to you on demand!
What will I learn?
Over nine lessons, you will learn how to conduct an in-depth oversight investigation using the six avenues of oversight (analytic bureaucracies, committees, appropriations, administrative rule review, advice and consent, and contract monitoring). Each lesson includes an instructional video (typically 20 to 40 minutes long), interviews with practitioners and academics, examples of best practices in the states, and a short assignment to explore how you can apply the lesson in your legislature.
