Pathways Translations


Pathways educational materials will be available in German, Arabic and Portuguese when regions 1 and 11 roll out the Pathways learning experience this month. Region 1 is in the Western United States, and Region 11 is located in Africa and the Middle East.

All materials in Toastmasters’ new education program have been translated into Arabic, French, German, Japanese, Portuguese, Simplified Chinese, Spanish and Traditional Chinese. Materials in Simplified Chinese, French and Spanish have previously been released in the Pathways rollout, and they have been well-received by members.

Members around the world volunteer their time and effort to ensure that all Pathways translations are accurate and authentic to the local culture. Thank you to members of:
