Education Program
The education program allows you to develop your communication and leadership skills one step at a time. The Toastmasters education program has two tracks: Communication and Leadership. The tracks aren't mutually exclusive. In fact, we encourage you to work on them in parallel. All of the skills in both tracks are important for everyone.
You progress through each track by completing a series of manuals that contain projects and evaluation guides. The advanced levels of each track build upon the skills learned in the earlier levels. Every Toastmaster starts with the Competent Communicator (CC) and Competent Leader (CL) manuals. The CC manual has a series of projects that help you develop the fundamental skills of public speaking. The skills that you learn from the CL manual can help you be a stronger team member or leader. Once you complete your CC, you progress to the Advanced Communicator (AC) program. Each AC manual has a different specialty, such as technical presentations or storytelling. Once you complete the CL manual, you progress to the Advanced Leader (AL) program, which has special project manuals. Along your journey, you will work through Toastmasters’ proven program to help you reach your goals. You’ll receive supportive feedback and recognition from club members as you progress through the program.
