How do I Learn More and Attend Meetings?
Attend meetings as a guest as many times as you like, before deciding if you want to officially join the club! We welcome communicators of all levels!
DTCC Toastmasters usually meets two Tuesdays a month, from 12 noon until 1 PM . All regular meetings are open to the public.
Additional workshops on speech-giving and Toastmasters Roles, as well as our mentorship program are also offered for members only, so let us know when you're ready to join our club.
How Should I Prepare For a Meeting?
If you are speaking, make sure to bring your Competent Communicator manual to be evaluated for CC Certification credit. It is also a good idea to provide an introduction through the duty roster so the Toastmaster can use it to set up your speech.
