With several Bronx political offices possibly up for grabs come next year’s election season, The League of Women Voters is offering to educate potential candidates with a 12-hour seminar course that starts on Sept. 6 at Bronx Community College.

Already, the course, called “How to Run for Public Office in New York City” has been held at community colleges in Queens, Manhattan and Brooklyn. Later in the year, it will be conducted in Staten Island.

The goal of the course “is to encourage more New Yorkers to become involved in the political life of the city,” said Alison Alpert, the League’s executive director, in a statement.

She added that two recent developments – the creation of the Campaign Finance Board, which allows candidates to receive matching public funds, as well as the institution of term limits – “has opened opportunities for those interested in running for a City Council seat.”

Topics discussed during the six sessions will include how to get your name on the ballot and securing funds, debate techniques, picking up endorsements, and election day strategies.

Teachers will include former elected officials and League members.

Scholarships are available, the group says, for those who can’t afford the tuition. For more information, call (212) 725-3541 or visit www.lwvnyc.org.
