Founded 2024

Our story

Rogaland Toastmasters Club was founded in 2024 by a small group of professionals in Stavanger who wanted a friendly, structured place to practise public speaking and leadership — in English, with colleagues from across the region's industries.

Today we're a growing community that meets bi-weekly at Sandnes Library. We're part of Toastmasters International, a worldwide non-profit that has helped people become better communicators for over 100 years.
