Speech contests are an integral part of the Toastmasters educational program. They provide an opportunity for speakers to improve their speaking abilities, as well as an opportunity for Toastmasters to learn by observing speakers who have benefited from their Toastmasters training.
Contests begin at the club level. Club winners compete at the local Area Contest. Area Contest winners compete at the local Division Contests. Division Contest winners compete at the District Conference. District International Speech Contest winners go on to represent the District at the International semi-finals at the annual Toastmasters International Convention.
There will be two contests on the same day:
- International Speech Contest
- Evaluation Contest
To be eligible to compete in the International Speech Contest, a member must have completed six speech projects in the Competent Communication manual or a minimum of two levels in the Toastmasters Pathways learning experience.
Mark your calendars!
