Massage from Program Quality Director
We hold the last club officers training in Okinawa this weekend. As a new attempt of this year, we have a focus on “First-timers” (club officers elected for the first time) in the club officers training. In Resources sessions, we introduced various information on the Web.. We also held program briefing sessions for lecturers and set up opportunities to help the lecturers understand the contents of each session. In addition, we set up a session to explain the overall picture of Pathways, and we informed you of the introductory procedure of District 76. This Pathways session will be announced again at the online seminar on September 10th.
This year we have scheduled online seminars at 7 am on the 2nd and 4 th Sunday. The only seminar provided by the trainer TM Matthew Ownby this week was very popular and as many as 140 people participated. At fast, the limit contract of the district was up to 100, we reconsidered the contract quickly and expanded it up to 500. Online seminars are free programs provided by the District. If you have computer or smartphone, you can watch or view and even ask questions from anywhere. Also, each seminar is recorded and uploaded to District 76’s site usually within one week.

From now on I will take not only major themes but also minor themes to respond to various needs and convey information to many people. We are waiting for many members participating in seminars.
