Dear Colleagues,

The World Council for Gifted and Talented Children is very pleased to invite you to participate in its 19th Biennial World Conference, the official conference of the WCGTC. This unique, international event brings together leaders in the field of gifted and talented education to share their knowledge and experiences with all cultures. 
We are organizing this conference in partnership with the Association for Talent and Giftedness (Společnost pro talent a nadání, o.s. (STaN)), the Czech Technical University in Prague, and Masaryk University. This conference is sponsored by The Czech-Moravian Psychological Society (CMPS); and Pearson.

Building on the successes of the previous WCGTC world conferences, I take this special opportunity to invite everyone who is interested in gifted education and has a stake in this field of knowledge to attend. We strongly believe that you will be the most important part of this conference and that your active participation is vital for us all to fulfil our mission.

The 19th World Conference will take place in Prague - Czech Republic. It is a perfect setting for this event. The spirit of sharing is a hallmark of this conference. We hope that you will find it to be a valuable resource for your professional research and educational activities. It provides a powerful, scientific platform for gifted education, professional dialogue, peer networking, and strengthening our services and practices.

By joining this conference, you will help ensure a strong development in gifted education. As in our previous conferences, you can expect to meet with a diversity of colleagues from different parts of the world. It is an excellent opportunity to exchange ideas and thoughts with international experts and to learn about the latest developments in this field of knowledge.   We are honoured and excited to have you in our international community, and we are looking forward to seeing you on August 8, 2011. The conference content, the venue, and your highly appreciated participation will make our upcoming conference an inspiring and memorable meeting of expertise and ideas.

See you in Prague - Czech Republic.
