TEDx Style Presentations

Each Educate Plus conference features five influential speakers who are selected from nominated members. If you know someone who belongs on the stage, or if you belong there yourself, we want to hear from you! Please use our speaker recommendation form to nominate your topic.

Five successful people are offered free online training as well as complementary attendance at the Planning a Perfect Presentation workshop run by Cameron Pegg, an award-winning editor, highly experienced journalist, and sought-after communications coach and trainer. These members will present a short talk on a topic of their choice, designed to be provocative, interesting and get you thinking differently about how we approach our day to day work. Thursday 2 June 9:00am – 10:00am – series of 10 minute TEDx Style Presentations.

*Please note conference partners can also nominate a speaker (no product or service promotion).
