Toastmasters

Expand you public speaking and leadership skills!
Toastmasters International

NPC's Toastmasters club has been meeting at NPC at our Snowflake campus since 2023. The club is open to everyone including students, staff, faculty, alumni and members of the public.  We meet on the 2nd and 4th Thursdays of every month from 5:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m.  Most of our meetings can also be attended online.

Toastmasters International (https://www.toastmasters.org/) is a non-profit educational organization that teaches public speaking and leadership skills through a worldwide network of clubs. The organization’s membership exceeds 364,000 in more than 16,200 clubs across 145 countries.  Currently, membership dues are $60 every six months, plus a new member fee of $20.  However, you don’t have to become a member.  You can still visit us as many times as you like and start participating in our impromptu speeches and speaking games, which are both fun and challenging! With Toastmasters, the learning never stops!

  • Those involved in civic and volunteer organizations who are required to network with the community through social events and by giving speeches and presentations
