2. Club Control Panel & Admin Tasks

2.2. Club Setup

The Club Setup section in the Club Control Panel controls several aspects of your club's functioning in Easy Speak. To get to it, login to Easy Speak, then the CCP. Next, select Club Setup.

Your club should appear on the right side. Select the Edit button. You will then be on General. Review all settings. When done, select Save at the top.

Next, navigate to the Display tab and check these settings (if you saved changes on General, you'll need to re-enter the edit screen). As with General settings, make sure you use the Save button if you change anything. Make sure the timezone setting is correct, as it can lead to incorrect times being listed for your meeting.

The next tab to cover is Options, which has various items to consider:

[ES CCP Club Setup Options]

This tab doesn't have too much to worry about, though if you don't want to use the survey feature, you may want to turn it off. Select Save if you make changes.

The next tab to worry about is Role Allocation. This tab controls how roles may be assigned as well as when rosters lock. If you have issues with people changing their role too soon before a meeting (which can cause pain because the Toastmaster has already printed agendas), you might want to modify the "prevent on-line user changes" option.

The next tab you want to verify is Meetings:

[ES CCP Club Setup Meetings]

The Default Location setting draws from the locations you have set in the Location Edit function, so if you need to change this to a place that doesn't exist yet, start in Location Edit. Otherwise, make sure the other settings are set the way you need them to be for your club. Make sure to use the Save button if you make changes.

The last tab to check is TMI Info:

[ES CCP TMI Info]

As with your other tabs, double check the details here. You should check this once a year to keep up with any re-organizations your district may have (if applicable). Make sure you use the Save button when you're done.
