Like to meet Rotarians from other clubs and learn how they operate ? Then RLI is for you – see details about RLI below. We still have places available in all courses – get started now and register with Geoff or Euan (see below for details) for this exciting Rotary experience.
The Rotary Leadership Institute (RLI) is a series of fast paced, interactive, (three one–day) courses offered to refine a Rotarian’s leadership skills and increase their base knowledge of Rotary.

Courses are fun, topical, interactive and geared to busy business people and professionals who would like to be more dynamic as leaders and members of their vocation and club. The training provides a better understanding of Rotary and its programmes, thus developing more effective Rotarians.
The Rotary Leadership Institute was formed in 1992 and it has been adopted by 192 Rotary Districts in 94 countries around the world.
Participants are expected to contribute their experience and ideas in facilitated discussion groups (not more than 15 participants) and the aim is to acquire leadership skills and grow Rotary knowledge. A deeper understanding of the unique nature of each Rotary club is fostered and participants are encouraged to learn from these differences. The style of the courses is conversational and learning comes by sharing knowledge, ideas and opinions.
The Institute offers courses in three full day sessions -
(9:00 am to 4:00pm) and participants must complete Part 1 before proceeding to Part 2 then graduating after completion of Part 3.
Rotary Clubs are asked to select at least two candidates for RLI annually and encouraged to send as many members as show interest in attending. Graduates return to their club with enthusiasm, new contacts, fresh ideas, an increased understanding of their potential as Rotarians, adding valuable skills that will impact on the club.

For 2011 the cost per Rotarian Is $60.00 per session
($180 for 3 sessions) and it is usual for clubs to pay this charge for their members.
