Toastmasters International is a non-profit organization that helps individuals develop their communication, public speaking, and leadership skills. The Pathways education program is one of its most popular offerings and is designed to provide members with a flexible and customizable learning experience.
The Pathways program offers 11 different paths, each of which focuses on a specific set of skills.
Take a closer look at the pathway you are interested in and read more about it. If you have any questions, we will be happy to advise you. You can find information about each Pathway by clicking on it’s name below.
To enroll in one of the pathways, you should be a member of the club and have access to Base Camp. If you meet these requirements and still need advice on setting up your pathway, please contact our Vice President of Education.
Each participant has the status of a guest when they visit our club for the first time. During your first meeting, you will be able to practice impromptu speeches. As soon as you understand the value we can bring and how we can help you improve, you may consider becoming a member. As a member, you will have the opportunity to take on roles and schedule your first prepared speech!
Sure, if you have any questions during the process, the officer team and our mentors will be glad to help you set up your Easy Speak account and prepare for a speech.
Our meetings consist of several main parts. We begin with an introduction of the supportive roles that help us become better speakers (Timer, Grammarian, etc.). The second part comprises prepared speeches, delivered by our members who have scheduled them in advance as part of their pathway projects. Following that, we move on to the impromptu speeches section called "Table Topics," where you can participate as a guest. Finally, the last part of our meeting is the evaluation, where our wonderful evaluators provide feedback to everyone.
