Shifting to online training | In the past several months, we’ve all learned a lot about how to transform in-person training into online training. Rotary has also developed more resources to help you manage your upcoming training events. Here are some strategies: - Find new ideas — Review the Offering Training Online document in the District Trainer Best Practices learning topic to get ideas about how to convert your training.
- Assign courses — Assign courses in the Learning Center to replace in-person training. Look at the list in the course catalog (PDF) to see what’s available.
- Consider an online-first approach — Assign online courses or other materials before a virtual meeting. Then, in the meeting, participants can reinforce what they learned from the materials by role-playing scenarios, practicing skills in a workshop, or having small-group discussions.
- Get Learning Center reports to monitor people’s progress — District trainers can take the Access to Learning Center Reports course. After they complete it, our team will set up two weekly reports that are emailed directly to district trainers.

District Vibrant Club Workshop | The new District Vibrant Club Workshop Leader’s Guide is here! This new workshop replaces three seminars: those on district membership, The Rotary Foundation, and our public image. It’s a chance for members to learn how membership, public image, and the Foundation work together to help us fulfill Rotary’s strategic plan, known as our Action Plan. |

Publications that are becoming online courses | Rotary stopped offering print publications for purchase in April, and as various manuals are turned into online courses, we'll also stop offering PDFs of those publications. This table lists the discontinued items and the courses that have replaced them. Make sure your club, district, and zone websites have the current links: DISCONTINUED PUBLICATION | ONLINE COURSE | Lead Your Club: Secretary | | Lead Your Club: Treasurer | | Lead Your Club: Membership Committee | | Lead Your Club: Rotary Foundation Committee | | Lead Your Club: Public Image Committee | | Lead Your Club: Service Project Committee | | Lead Your Club: Administration Committee | | Lead Your District: Governor | | Lead Your District: Assistant Governor | |

Grant management recertification | Members can now be recertified for grants in the Learning Center. The Grant Management Seminar Recertification course is available for people who have previously completed the full nine-course Grant Management Seminar and now just need to maintain their qualification to apply for grants. We’re here to support you in your training efforts. Send your questions and suggestions to the Learning and Development staff at learn@rotary.org. |
