1. Is this worth trying here?

What we hope will change: Offers a repeatable series of concise online learning sessions that answer real community questions, combine expert and lived experience, and end with a usable resource or action.

What is happening in our club or community now?What is the smallest useful version we could try? What will we leave out?

2. Our 90-day try-out

What our club will do for Online Rotary Webinar Series
Step	What we will do	Who could lead it
1	Prioritise webinar questions using community requests and service evidence.	Series Learning Lead
2	Brief speakers to provide balanced, sourced and practical content within an accessible format.	Speaker Producer
3	Rehearse slides, captions, audio, keyboard flow, moderation, recording notice and contingencies.	Technical and Accessibility Lead
4	Deliver with polls or questions that support the learning outcome rather than collect unnecessary data.	Host and Moderator
5	Publish the accessible resource pack, resolve unanswered questions and improve the next session.	Resource and Evaluation Lead

3. Checks before we start

Things our club needs to check
Question	What it means for us	Who will check	Done?
Clearly distinguish education from professional advice and disclose speaker interests, limitations and source dates.
Recording is optional and separately notified; provide captions, transcript or equivalent resources and never expose attendee lists.
HIGH - inaccessible learning, speaker claims, recording consent and platform disruption require disciplined production.
