Meeting Roles
Educational Program
Proven by award-winning North American Speakers
Our meetings are grouped into rounds, with each round consisting of 8-9 meetings. At the end of the round, club members collaborate to organize and lead a fun event chosen by vote. Previous events have included debates, workshops, games, cultural exchanges, and more.
For each round, a member is scheduled to give 1 speech that should be prepared following a curriculum project's guidelines. The Generation 50 Introductory Educational Program consists of 10 curriculum projects.
Every curriculum project sets specific goals that a speaker should achieve in their speech, such as an active usage of advanced writing techniques. Based on these goals, the Speech Evaluator assesses the speaker's performance.
As members acquire and refine new skills with each project, by the end of the program, they are equipped with essential skills to deliver speeches confidently and effectively.
