So, you want to become a speaker? Or, you are a speaker but want to further improve in specific areas?
Congratulations to our recent University Graduates. Thank you to University Dean Trevor Dean and everyone who supported our students during the last year.
Our NSA NYC Speaker University enjoyed an exciting renovation in February 2016. We hope you will join us for our dynamic program, which is comprised of a two-part educational offering.
The NSA NYC Speaker University program is open to non-members who speak regularly but not for a fee, or who speak on behalf of their employer. (In addition, members of NSA NYC are welcome to join the program.)
The NSA NYC Speaker University program is part of an ongoing chapter effort to help aspiring and new speakers become successful in the business of professional speaking. The program is designed for qualified applicants, who want a structured, online and in-person program for developing their speaking career. We follow the National Speakers Association’s curriculum, which is based on the four competencies of NSA: Expertise, Eloquence, Enterprise & Ethics. The objectives of Speaker University are to:
To be accepted, an applicant must demonstrate basic public speaking capability. Applicants are asked to list their previous speeches, both paid and unpaid. If available, video depicting the applicant speaking before a live audience is helpful, but not mandatory.
The program costs are $1,997.
The best return on investment is an investment in yourself.
RESULT = An investment in yourself that pays!
“If you’re an aspiring speaker, the NSA NYC Speaker University is a must. We heard from a wide range of expert speakers who generously shared their personal and professional experiences first-hand. Between our teachers, our course leaders and my fellow University students, I came away from the course feeling that I had my own personal cheering section, rooting me on to success as a professional speaker. I highly recommend this course.”
“The NSA NYC Speaker University has been an important investment in my speaking business. The materials are outstanding and the workshops are presented by leaders in the speaking business. There is ample opportunity to develop and practice all of the elements you need to launch a successful speaking platform. Aspiring speakers who haven’t yet identified their topic to those who are ready-to-go will all gain valuable information and advice from the workshop presenters and mentors who are part of this program. I highly recommend the NSA NYC Speaker University.”
“The NSA NYC Speaker University was a valuable experience. It is a step-by-step blueprint for establishing a speaking business. Ten sessions culminate in a speaker showcase in front of the chapter’s professional members. I highly recommend the Speaker University. It was worth every penny I spent.”
“The NSA NYC Speaker University 2014 provided me with valuable insight into the framework required for professional speaking in the United States. Whether you are new to speaking or already an experienced speaker, the NSA NY Speaker University connects you with other professional speakers at all levels in the tri-state area. It offers you both support and accountability in a business that largely relies on self-motivation.”
“My participation in the Speakers’ University is shaving years off my learning curve, saving me from making painful mistakes, and bringing me joy by introducing me to scores of new friends and colleagues. I would highly recommend this program to anyone considering a career as a professional speaker.”
“In my opinion the greatest strength of the academy is its mentor relationship. I’m literally blown away by the willingness of professional speakers to take the time to mentor someone new to the business. Each mentor that I have been fortunate enough to work with has opened my eyes to new possibilities and guided me toward groups or individuals that would be helpful to me as I pursue my goals.”
