Why is Attending Club Officer Training So Important?
Attending COT as a Club Executive is one way to contribute towards your club’s Distinguished goals in education, membership and leadership. Club officer training is a key component of the DCP, with specific requirements for attendance and participation.
To earn DCP points, clubs must have a minimum of four out of seven club officer positions trained in both rounds of training offered each year.
Only Program Quality Director recognized training will be credited.
- Round 1 - June 1, 2025 to August 31, 2025
- Round 2 - November 1, 2025 to February 28, 2026
Club officer training will be posted as the Districts list them in their event calendar. Please check back regularly for additional dates.
