As
enacted by the Rotary Council on Legislation, Rotary International
requires attendance by Presidents Elect at PETS as stated:
"If the President Elect does not attend the Presidents Elect training seminar and the District Assembly, and has not been excused by the Governor Elect or, if so excused, does not send a designated club representative to such meetings, the President
Elect shall not be able to serve as club president. In such an
event, the current president shall continue to serve the club as club president until a successor who has attended a president elect training seminar and District Assembly or training deemed sufficient by the governor elect has been duly elected."
