Club Officer Training

Couldn't make it to a TLI? Opportunity Feb 9 in Peoria 5:00PM - 8:00PM
 
Division Governor, Di Wang, has arranged for a make-up training session for Club Officers who were unable to attend a TLI. On Feb 9 from 5:00PM - 8:00PM at One Technology Plaza in downtown Peoria. Remember that at least 4 officers from every club needs to attend training twice a year in order to meet one qualification for the Distinguished Club Program for 2011-2012.
 
RM 338
One Technology Plaza
211 Fulton Street
Peoria, IL, 61602

Please send me your name and position if you can attend this training and you will receive the information about the time of the class for your position.

You only need to come for that one hour.
 
Any club officer can volunteer to be the presenter for their officer session and that will earn credit for their club just the same as attending the class.  Use this opportunity to speak before a new audience.  The PowerPoint for every position is available on the TI website.  Classes are usually small and give a great opportunity to ask those questions you have been dying to ask.
