Another year, another fantastic, thought-provoking TEDxYouth@Toronto event. The TEDxYouth@Toronto Organizing Committee is getting ready for its next conference in 2015 and we want you to join our team.

The Organizing Committee was founded five years ago and ever since we have been coordinating annual conferences featuring talks by the top professionals in their fields. Some of our past speakers include Olympic medalists Scott Moir and Tessa Virtue, Facebook Canada’s Jordan Banks and former astronaut and Member of Parliament Marc Garneau.

Every year, youth from around the globe either join us in person or virtually and each year interest in our conference grows. To keep up with the demand, we are recruiting new members to join the organizing committee. As part of a licensed TEDx team you will be working alongside other dedicated volunteers in the spirit of ideas worth spreading.

Not sure that you would make a great fit to the team and that you should apply? Take this short quiz to find out:

1. The following is true for you. Pick one:
   1. I love TED talks and watch the videos quite often. I’ve even seen some from TEDxYouth@Toronto’s event
   2. TED? What is that?
2.  You are at a TEDxYouth@Toronto team meeting discussing how to engage youth to the event. You:
   1. Participate in the discussion and throw out some ideas. This is fun.
