The A-Spiring Toastmasters Club is comprised of several experienced
Toastmasters convening to provide more experience and expertise to the
members. In
order to join the A-Spiring Toastmasters Club a person must be a member
in good standing of another Toastmaster Club, and must have received
the Competent Toastmaster level of achievement.
The purpose of the
Advanced Club is to allow members to complete manual speaking projects
that would not be easily accomplished in a regular Toastmaster Club
meeting. Several advanced manuals require speeches of 20 -30 minutes,
or even more, and these would consume the entire speech time in a club
meeting.
Speeches in the Advanced Club would be dedicated to these more lengthy
manual projects. Another benefit is that each speech will be evaluated
by the group; one person will give a formal evaluation and the rest
will present a snapshot evaluation.
