A Toastmasters meeting is a learn-by-doing workshop in which participants hone their speaking and leadership skills in a friendly atmosphere. 

A typical group meets weekly or biweekly to practice public speaking techniques. The average meeting lasts one hour. 

Members learn communication skills by working in the 

Competent Communication manual, a series of 10 self-paced speaking assignments designed to instill a basic foundation in public speaking. 

Members also learn leadership skills by taking on various meeting roles and serving as officers at the club and district levels, and by working in the Competent Leadership manual and the High Performance Leadership program.
