“Becoming a Competent Leader is a great achievement,”
After completing the ten (10) Competent Leader projects, a Toastmasters member is entitled to the Competent Leader (CL) award, and may add the post-nominal CL to their name for Toastmasters purposes. After earning the CL award the Toastmaster can further refine and develop his leadership skills by working in the advanced leader program. Members working in this program are eligible for Advanced Leader Bronze (ALB) and Advanced Leader Silver (ALS) recognition.
Club Vice President of Education, Anita Crum presented Jeriel with a special award to recognize the milestone. Mr. Roberts joined Toastmasters in 2010 and belongs to Toastmaster Club of Union.
“A good leader sets the example. They know that others will follow their lead.

Don’t be afraid to take the lead when the opportunity comes,” said Roberts.
Robert’s leadership and communication achievements include serving two terms as Treasurer of Toastmaster’
