Presidents Elect and Assistant Governors at SW PETS February, 2024
 
 
Learning and planning opportunities empower Rotary Club Presidents-Elect to have a fun and fulfilling year.  Together, we collaborate, sharing best practices and innovative ideas to elevate our clubs to new heights. In 2024-25 we work together to make our clubs simply irresistible!
 
Presidents-Elect Training and Forum with District Governor-Elect Ted Faigle began Tuesday, September 5, 2023, 7:00 P.M. to 8:00 P.M. HST and continued in October and November. All sessions were via Zoom
 
If you missed a session, please take time to review the appropriate recorded session below.
 
This was all followed with Pre-PETS on Saturday, January 20, 2024, 9:00 A.M. to 11:30 A.M. HST.  This was the last training and preparation session (via Zoom) for Presidents-Elect before we traveled to take part in Southwest Presidents-Elect Training Seminar (SW PETS)
 
SW PETS was from February 1 to 4, 2024 at LAX Marriott in Los Angeles, California . Even Hana Hou Presidents who attended said it was beneficial and worth their investment of time. 
 
 
 
For each session we had in September-November, there was recommended pre-work to complete.  These are short online courses in the Rotary Learning Center at rotary.org, My Rotary.  If you have not already, go to rotary.org and set up an account login for My Rotary.
 
Below is the pre-work and the featured agenda topic for each of our sessions. We had a district expert speak with us briefly on each topic and also had plenty of time for discussion and sharing ideas and best practices with each other.  After the session, the recorded session (VIDEO) is available to access.
