Train to be Toastmaster:

Home Page.

Training is a very important part of the Executive Guild’s aims and objectives.  It ensures that when our members are engaged for business, clients have hired a professional that is trained and qualified.  Someone that is more than capable of dealing with every type of situation, ensuring that the event runs smoothly to the satisfaction of the host or hosts.

The Toastmaster Training Academy, although a separate operation, is the training arm of the Executive Guild and as such offers membership to those that have successfully graduated from the course.

It is a residential course, run over 5 days.  Being intensive it will involve some evening study and be very pro-active with many role play situations. The Hotel is in Swindon Wiltshire, being close to the M4 motorway.

During the week students will learn al there is to know about their new toastmaster career; every conceivable type of function they will be expected to cover. Addressing issues with Public address systems and microphone techniques.

Advice on how to run their own business and the challenges this entails.  Information on advertising costs, where to advertise, how much to budget and measuring the success.

Text books and training manuals are provided to students and these build as the course progresses.

The training is conducted by two Fellows of the Executive Guild of Toastmasters.  There will also be guest presenters who specialise in certain events.

After your initial enquiry, we hold a formal interview when we discover why you wish to be a toastmaster and discuss how this new career would fit into your domestic life. At this interview we aim to answer all your questions and explain how the course will be run.

The Toastmaster Training courses will be run 4 times a year.
