We have not really changed the name but we want to make it very well understood that the RLI is not just a place for "Leadership" training. It is a series of facilitated learning sessions for all Rotarians. It will make Rotary "Come Alive" for you.

RLI Parts 1, 2 & 3 are being offered. Courses must be taken in sequence. You must have completed parts 1 and 2 before you take part 3. 

The Rotary Leadership Institute (RLI) is a series of fast-paced, interactive, one-day courses offered to refine a Rotarian's leadership skills and increase their base of knowledge in Rotary.

Courses are fun, topical, interactive, and geared toward busy business and professional persons who want to be more effective in their vocation and club and more knowledgeable Rotarians.

Rotary Clubs are encouraged to select at least two candidates for RLI annually. Students return to their club with enthusiasm, new contacts, fresh ideas, an increased understanding of their potential as Rotarians, and valuable skills impacting their potential in the club. 

What are the courses? The Institute offers a course in three full day parts (Parts I, II, III). Those completing each part are eligible for the next part. 

The courses are designed to provide Rotary knowledge and to develop skills for voluntary organizations. Some examples of course sessions include:

  • Rotary Beyond the Club
  • The Rotary Foundation (2 parts) - Future Vision Plan
  • Membership Development and Retention (2 parts)
  • Leadership
  • Creating Hands On Service Projects
  • Vocational Service - Ethics
  • International Service
  • Analyzing a Rotary Club
  • Public Relations & Communications

Group Discussion Leader
This course trains you to be a GDL ( facilitator). You must have completed all 3 parts to be eligible. Not all graduates are always selected for every session so we need new faces. This course is run if we have 5 or more applications so get yours in early and we will advise you later. You can always switch to the Graduate Course if there are not enough in the GDL course. There is no cost for a GDL to present a course if asked. Travel and expenses are subsidized. 

Graduate Course
The graduate course is designed for those who have completed all 3 parts but are not interested in taking the Group Discussion Leader course. Please note that we always need more new faces as discussion leaders so do not hesitate to take that course if you feel you would be a good facilitator.

What are the teaching methods? The Institute believes in course sessions with as much discussion/participation as possible. Discussion breakout sessions are limited to approximately 10-15 persons. Lectures are strictly limited. Course methods include discussion groups, role-playing, problem solving workshops and case studies. Everyone participates during one of the Institutes sessions. 

A course workbook containing an Institute Manual, session program agendas, faculty listings and course outlines and materials, is provided to each attendee.
