The President-Elect Learning Seminar (PELS) is the key training event designed to prepare incoming club leaders for the 2026–27 Rotary year. While this training is essential for Presidents-Elect and incoming officers, all Rotarians are welcome to attend and learn more about how our District supports club success.
The program includes required pre-training modules along with a live training session on Saturday, April 18, 9 am - 4pm CENTRAL/ 8 am - 3 pm MOUNTAIN, offered in person at regional locations or virtually via Zoom.
During this seminar, participants will:
• Gain a clear understanding of expectations for the upcoming Rotary year
• Learn about important District 5610 resources and support
• Connect with fellow club leaders and Rotarians from across the district
• Prepare to lead their clubs effectively and successfully
Clubs should ensure their 2026–27 officers are named, pre-training modules are completed, and attendees are registered prior to the live session.

Area Assistant Governors will guide clubs through the process and will share the exact locations for in-person sessions once sites are finalized.
