How to Make Up A Missed Meeting by Attending an E-Club

Even the most dedicated Rotarians find it hard to achieve that loftiest of club goals -- 100 percent attendance. Rotary is now recognizing 14 officially chartered e-clubs (PDF), part of a pilot program that runs through 2010. It permits members to make up missed meetings by attending an e-club online.

Find a club that speaks your language. If the club's schecdule is convenient for your make-up, you’ll need an Internet connection of at least 512 kilobits a second, a computer with Windows XP or Vista, a headset, and a webcam. Try to connect to the conference room link at least 15 minutes beforehand, as first-time log-on takes some time.

Picking a Meeting and Program

E-clubs generally have two requirements for a make-up: Spend 30 minutes on their site reading from a collection of Rotary-related programs, and complete a make-up request form, which includes answering a few questions about what you read. (Don't worry, the questions are reflective, not multiple choice.)

The flexibility and convenience of an e-club make-up can't be beat. Once on a club's site, just click the link for make-ups and follow the simple instructions.

Here is a list of chartered Rotary e-clubs who are participating in the Rotary E-Club Pilot Project. Clicking on the name of the club will direct you to its site.
