SUMMARY:VPE Support Session 5
DESCRIPTION:Our next session on will be all about Educational Awards. \nHelping members achieve Educational Awards is not only for the individual’s benefit\, but for your club as well. \nDid you know that 6 of your club’s DCP points are from the educational awards? Thus\, as a VPE\, your knowledge and planning of members achieving their educational awards is critical to your club’s attainment of distinguished club status. \nFor our session on Educational Awards\, you’ll learn: \n\nWhat CC\, PM2\, ALB all mean. Finally understand those weird letters after Toastmaster names.\nThe highest individual award a Toastmaster can attain and how to achieve it.\nHow to submit educational awards.\nHow to increase member satisfaction and retention in your club.\nHow to help your club become a distinguished club.\n\nFor all the topics above\, I’ll be covering both the Traditional Educational Program and Pathways. \nBonus:\n\nStill don’t know what to do with level completions in Pathways? I’ll cover that again as part of Pathways Educational awards.\n\nTo sign up for VPE Support Sessions\, go to bit.ly/vpehelp.

SUMMARY:VPE Support Session 4
DESCRIPTION:Our next session will be all about Managing Meeting Agendas. \nYes\, club agendas are the hardest and most time consuming responsibility of a VPE\, so I’ve invited Ross Wilkinson back for our next session to share with us some strategies and insights on tackling this enormous task. \nIn addition to Ross\, I’ve invited 2 other experienced Toastmasters\, Stephen Ermann and Janette Edwards. \nTogether\, we’ll be having a round table discussion on the different tools\, techniques\, and thinking that goes behind managing agendas\, so it doesn’t seem as difficult or time consuming. \nWe’ll also talk about how to handle people backing out at the last minute and completely messing up your nicely planned in advance agenda (cause this doesn’t happen a lot right?). \nI am really excited about this session and invite you to come and sit in on the discussion. \nTo sign up for VPE Support Sessions\, go to bit.ly/vpehelp.

SUMMARY:VPE Support Session 3
DESCRIPTION:This session will be different from my first two! \nIt won’t be just myself presenting\, but we will have a special guest… Ross Wilkinson\, who will be sharing with us his own personal journey in Pathways. \nOf all the Toastmasters in District 17\, Ross is one of those who has progressed the most in Pathways.  Already in Level 5 of his current path\, he will share with us detailed insights on the Pathways Program. \nSome of the topics we’ll talk about include: \n\nHow do I choose the right path?\nHow can we find out about EVERYTHING we need to know about the path we’re thinking of choosing?\nHow can I gain the maximum benefit from my Pathways experience?\nWhat should we do in our club to ensure Pathways is adapted without much pushback from our members?\n\nRoss is THE EXPERT on the Pathways program. \nNot only is he a Pathways Guide\, but he has gone further than most of us in the program\, and is aiming to finish his first path this month! When he does so\, he will be among the first in the district to accomplish this feat! \nI am really excited about Ross and am looking forward to our discussion \nTo sign up for VPE Support Sessions\, go to bit.ly/vpehelp.
