Academy Sources & Jurisdiction Checklist
Official sources used to inform Academy operating practices and a checklist for local adaptation.
Authoritative sources and adaptation notes
The Academy teaches operating practice, not jurisdiction-specific legal advice. Campaigns must confirm current rules with their election authority, official agent, treasurer, compliance professional, or legal counsel.
- Elections Canada – candidate, voting, and political financing guidance.
- U.S. Federal Election Commission – federal candidate and committee guidance.
- National Democratic Institute – campaign planning and political participation manuals.
