The IRRI Toastmasters Club (TMC) has been conferred the President's Distinguished Club award, the highest award given to Toastmaster International (TI) clubs, for the fourth time—earning a mention by TI President Michael Notario in his speech during the TI International Convention in 2011.
On Saturday, 14 July, IRRI TMC hosted a training event for officers of the Los Banos Toastmasters Club at the Khush Hall.
IRRI TMC has also recently elected its new set of officers for 2012-13:
President: Helen Grace S. Centeno, CC; VP Education: Joel Janiya, ACB; VP Membership: Shanta N. Karki, CC; VP Public Relations: Sylvia P. Avance, ACB; Secretary: Gladys Jannette Thielke, CC; Treasurer: Ma. Rebecca C. Laza, CC; Sgt. at Arms: Jeehyoung Shim, CC; and IP President: Darlene L. Sanchez, ACB.
IRRI TMC was started in 1997 and helps its members improve their speaking and leadership skills. A typical meeting is a "learn-by-doing" workshop in which members hone their public speaking skills through an atmosphere of positive feedback-giving.
