How Do I Join Toastmasters?

Become a Member

Joining a Toastmasters club is easy. With more than 10,000 clubs in 90 countries around the world, there is sure to be one near you. Follow the Find a Club link to search our worldwide index of clubs.

After you find a club, attend a meeting and apply for membership. All clubs have a different personality, so you might want to visit several before you make a decision. Clubs occasionally change their meeting time, day and location, so call ahead to verify the details.

Have you ever paid $100 for a one-day seminar? You probably won't pay that for an entire year of Toastmasters. There is a $16 new-member fee, then $18 dues every six months. Clubs may also assess local dues to cover local expenses. 

If there are no clubs near you, consider organizing one! Follow the Start a Club link for more information.

The more than 200,000 members are from a variety of occupations and backgrounds. They include doctors, auto mechanics, executives, teachers, homemakers, artists, college students, supervisors, attorneys, engineers, salespersons and more. However, Toastmasters is only for individuals 18 years or older.
