About Our Club |
Welcome to Amsterdam Toastmasters Club
Amsterdam Toastmasters Club (ATC) is the oldest community Toastmaster Club in The Netherlands having been chartered by Toastmasters International in April 2002.
We follow the proven Toastmasters programmes and methods to empower our members to develop communication and leadership skills and reach their personal development goals. We place a strong emphasis on education and pride ourselves on personal attention, strong mentorship, and a range of learning offerings. Our Club Executive Committee’s top priority is to facilitate our members in achieving their goals.
Our Members
With over 50 members made up of 35 different nationalities, ATC is a truly international learning environment. We pride ourselves on our diversity, spirit, and sense of community. We value learning and we value fun, and we believe the two go hand in hand. We recently asked our members what they get from Amsterdam Toastmasters. Here were their top 5 answers..
1. Public speaking skills and confidence
2. Personal development
3. Social & networking opportunities
4. Evaluation skills
5. Leadership skills
We’re a sociable bunch at ATC and we always make time for a get together after our meetings. We find there’s as much learning value in the informal gatherings as there is in the formal ones. Some people believe it’s where the real meeting starts!

Through this mission, each Toastmaster gains a clear understanding of the club's purpose, and the organization as a whole benefits from a shared set of values and goals.
