General Information
What is the PIE Calendar used for?
The PIE Calendar shows information about confirmed, cancelled and reinstated PIE. Ontario guidance counsellors use the PIE Calendar to coordinate PIE in their region and plan joint events with other counsellors.
What information do I need to provide about our event?
Provide as much information as possible (e.g., arrival and set-up time, duration, format, parking and unloading of materials and refreshments, if provided). In particular, please provide detailed information about parking for your event. The OUAC will share this information with the universities so they know what to expect.
Will universities provide information in French?
It depends on the university. Some Ontario universities are bilingual, so attendees may have an opportunity to speak one-on-one with university representatives in French.
