Hi. We're the
Creative Communicators Toastmasters!
(Club #1567785)

Creative Communicators Toastmasters (CCTM) - an Ottawa club originally chartered by a group of local interior designers - is a club for architects, interior designers, and other industry-related professionals. 

Whichever creative field we work in, communicating our vision to others is the key to our success, whether by expressing our concepts visually, or by describing the details with precision to our clients and colleagues.
