Using the Community Speakers Bureau
This online publication lists speakers from throughout Iowa Valley Community College District (Hardin, Marshall, Tama and Poweshiek counties) who are available to give presentations to clubs, organizations, churches, schools, and other groups.
There is no charge for the speakers other than a meal cost when a dinner meeting is involved. If your organization, as a gesture of appreciation, wishes to make a financial contribution to the Ellsworth College Foundation, the Marshalltown Community College Foundation, or the Iowa Valley Continuing Education Tuition Grant Program, you may do so. Such contributions can be sent directly to the IVCCD Chief Financial Officer, 3702 S. Center St., Marshalltown, IA 50158. (Please specify the entity you wish to designate your contribution for and that it relates to the Speakers Bureau.)
All speakers listed in this booklet are volunteers; IVCCD does not necessarily endorse the topics or opinions they might express.
How to book a speaker:
- Find the program you want. Names, addresses, phone numbers, and some e-mail addresses for speakers are listed in the Index.
- You are responsible for contacting the speaker and confirming the date, time, and place of the speaking engagement. Speakers request a minimum of two weeks notice.
- After you have confirmed a speaker, give your speaker a courtesy reminder call a day or two before the event.
- Be sure and provide the speaker with your name and phone number in case of an emergency.
- Due to travel time and cost, some speakers may choose not to present programs in counties or communities outside their own.
