Yingdan Liu DTM was elected District Governor-elect for District 85 at the District Conference this weekend.
Later in the afternoon, Wendy Wang ACB ALB was elected Division Governor for Division D, and Bill Wang ACB was elected Division Governor for Division L, the new Division for CAT.

Speaker to Trainer is the Toastmasters International program specifically designed to help you become a trainer – to bridge the gap between public speaking and delivering effective trainings. Through delivering this session, Yingdan will be completing a requirement towards her Advanced Communicator Gold.
In this program you’ll discover the five steps involved in preparing and presenting a training program using adult learning principles.
