Take a look at what our attendees said about their experience at The PIE Live events in 2022 and 2023.

This event left me inspired! The sessions were a great balance of current trends and important topics in the field. I got a lot from each session for my role in study abroad and working with international students. I have been inspired to be a presenter at future PIE Live events. I really appreciate having the opportunity to attend. I took 9 pages of notes in the two days and almost two weeks after the event I am still reflecting on the content that was shared during the sessions. One big takeaway from this event, for me, was that we all experience the same challenges and successes. I left the event excited to know that there are other passionate educators in the field. Thank you!

I just returned from The PIE event in Toronto. It was great to see old colleagues and to meet new colleagues. Being in the same room with so many professionals who are working to move the field of International Education forward is so inspiring. Coming away with a lot of good ideas and great contacts! Can’t wait to build on these relationships!

My first ever #PIELIVE22. Tremendous conference of international education professionals. It was so great meeting so many professionals from Canada, the US and the UK. The last few days reminded me why it's an honour to be a part of this industry and a huge responsibility. The PIE, take a bow
