The Distinguished Club
Program
The Distinguished Club Program (DCP) was established by Toastmasters
International as a general measure of club success. Each year
the Distinguished Club Program recognizes clubs that have
outstanding achievements in education, membership and club
building, club leadership, and club communication. This measure
is not the whole of what makes a club successful, but it does
reflect some of the more common activities that help make
a club successful.
To help members achieve their personal goals, clubs are encouraged
to define a mission statement and create a Club Success Plan,
which for many clubs will be based on the targets outlined
in the Distinguished Club Program. The Distinguished Club
Program therefore has the duel benefit of helping both the
club and its members.
