Institute – Big West Rotaract

2020 VIRTUAL INSTITUTE

In July Big West Rotaract will be hosting a virtual training for Rotaract leaders to learn about leadership, conflict resolution, event planning, sales, marketing, delegation, recruitment, retention, and much more!

Known as the Big West Rotaract Institute, the BWR Institute has received praise from leaders of all levels. The networking and fellowship that comes with attending a BWR Institute is within itself priceless and often a game changer for many of our leaders.

This year’s Big West Rotaract Institute includes three different curriculum tracks: President Elect Training Session (PETS), Governor Elect Training Session (GETS), and Board Elect Training Session (BETS). The PETS track is designed for incoming or new Rotaract club presidents and vice presidents. The GETS track is designed for incoming or new District Rotaract Representatives (DRRs) and their fellow Rotaract district leaders. The BETS track is designed for incoming or new Rotaract club officers.
