Simply stated, each club has 10 goals it tries to
meet each year: six are related to education, two
are related to membership, one is related to
training and one relates to administration. This
remains the same under Pathways. However, the names
of the six educational goals have new names under
Pathways. These goals are collectively known as the
Distinguished Club Program (DCP).
|
|
|
|
During the transition period from the current
education system to the new Pathways learning
system, the DCP will transition through three
stages: Stage 1 (current system will last until at
least early 2020), Stage 2 (a hybrid
system), and Stage 3 (Pathways). |
|
|
|
The current Distinguished Club Program (DCP) includes 10 goals that your
club should strive to achieve each year. |

STAGE TWO (Hybrid Program)
|
|
|
|
Stage two is a combination of
the current system and the Pathways system, which I call the
Hybrid system. |
|
|
|
There will be a transition period during which the current
education program runs concurrently with Pathways. Members can
participate in one program or the other (or both, if they
choose). During this time, clubs will have flexibility when it
comes to the DCP. They can still aim for completing six
educational goals—but they can choose from 12 options: Members
can meet the six current educational goals, the six Pathways
goals or a mix of goals from both education programs. |

To be considered for recognition, clubs must
have 20 members or a net growth of at least
five new members as of June 30th. |

EDUCATION
Goals 1 through 6 focus on
education awards. When members have the
opportunity to reach their education goals,
they are benefiting from the Toastmasters
experience, becoming better speakers and
leaders.

The idea is to make the switch to the DCP in
Pathways as seamless as possible. Once the
transition period ends, the six Pathways goals will
be the DCP educational goals for all clubs. The
transition period lasts for two years after all
regions have been included in the Pathways rollout.
