Whether through professional-led workshops for students and teachers or our original Concordia Presents speaker series, the school continues to attract best-selling authors and leading subject matter experts from around the world to engage with the community.
Over the years, we have been honored to welcome a host of speakers and experts in various fields to our campus. From authors and artists to philanthropists and entrepreneurs, we have provided a platform for a wide variety of global leaders and experts to share their knowledge with our students, teachers, and parents. Some of these experts have visited Concordia for days or weeks at a time either in person or virtually to work with students and teachers in the classroom or take part in other special school events.
Face-to-face interaction with an expert gives students access to professional knowledge that helps further their understanding of a particular area of study.
