In the spirit of "ideas worth spreading", TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share in a TED-like experience. Twenty-eight Lethbridge Public School teachers, SACEE and SAYEE have partnered to create TEDxLethbridge for professional development and we would like to invite you to learn, share and interact alongside us.

The event begins at 8:45 a.m. and runs through 2 p.m. Tickets are priced at $10 each and seating is limited. Lunch is included.
