Learning and Development - Update August 2020
Whilst Covid-19 may have bought the world to a stop, Rotary International HQ (Evanston) has continued
its focus on providing resources to ensure Rotarians have the knowledge, skills and abilities to lead at club
level, and in the development and implementation of projects.
I encourage you to connect with the Learning Centre at the MY ROTARY portal and start your
learning journey.
New courses in the Learning centre
Our Logo: What You Should Know
Are your clubs using the newest Rotary logo and graphics for club communications? Have you trained new
members on the history of the Rotary logo? This new course helps clubs understand how to correctly use
the Rotary logo.
The courses below, developed by Toastmasters International, are part of an eight-course series on leadership
development. They include practice exercises that allow people a chance to practice the concepts they’ve
learned and an evaluation component so users can get feedback on what they did well and how they can
improve.
Leadership Basics
Understand how to set goals, motivate team members, and learn the skills you need to lead a group to
accomplish a goal.
Leading a Team
Learn more about making ethical decisions, recognizing contributions, and other components of team
leadership.
Learn more about Rotary’s alliance with Toastmasters.
Note: If the direct links to the courses don’t work for you, use your desktop to sign in to the
Learning Center at rotary.org/learn and use the search box under the Course Catalogs heading
to find the course you’re interested in. Hover over the Learning & Reference tab and select Learning Centre
to access the course catalogue.
