Harvard Debate Council Summer Workshop

If you're searching for a debate camp run by expert coaches at one of the most prestigious schools in the country, the Harvard Debate Council's Summer Workshop is the place! Designed for beginner-level students with little to no policy debate experience, your child can learn debate fundamentals and research procedures, perform practice speeches, learn how to form an argument, and so much more!

With both in-person and online options, attendees can learn everything from strategy and research to argumentation and preparation during their eight days at summer camp. After each session, students get the opportunity to ask their instructions anything, so nothing gets missed.

Those staying on the Harvard campus can make use of its libraries and other facilities for any research that needs to be done. The program runs one in-person session between June and July and one session for online near early July. Attendees leave the camp ready to succeed at their next debate tournament.
