Speakers Bureau Application

Book a Speaker

District 60 Toastmasters can connect you with dynamic speakers on a variety subjects for your next meeting. The Toastmasters registered with this speakers bureau offer competent and professional quality speeches. They do this to help attract new members to Toastmasters; to complete requirements for advancement in Toastmasters; and for the joy of speaking in public.

By Toastmasters International Rules, our speakers can not charge for speeches that are arranged for them through the District 60 Speakers Bureau. However, that does not preclude them from accepting an honorarium or being compensated for reasonable travel expenses. We leave these arrangements entirely to you and the Toastmaster.

To book a speaker, please contact the Speakers Bureau Coordinator directly.

If a speaker is available who meets your requirements, they will contact you directly. Your request will be acknowledged within three working days. If you do not hear from your speaker, or if you have any questions, contact the Speakers Bureau Coordinator. 

Become a Speaker

Someday, someone outside of Toastmasters is going to ask you if you would be willing to give a speech. That day could be today. If you are an experienced Toastmaster who has attained their CC/CTM** or who has had professional speaking experience, you are eligible to register with the District 60 Speakers Bureau.
** CC=Competent Communicator/CTM=Competent Toastmaster. These are equivalent and are awarded upon completing the "basic" 10 speech manual)

We are currently spreading the word that District 60's speakers bureau is open for business and requests are coming in!

Please be advised that all speaking engagements arranged by the district speakers bureau are offered as a service of Toastmasters International and no payment, aside from expenses or a small honorarium, can be accepted.

Anyone wishing to register for the speakers bureau should have at least one speech ready to go. The co-ordinator will attempt to offer you speaking opportunities which most closely match your skills and experience.
