Easily find all the exciting and informative Orientation & Transition events we’ve put together to get you started and keep you on the right track each term. Pick and choose whatever events suit your specific needs but pay close attention as some events may require you to register in advance.
These events are completely optional and designed to provide the guidance to get you started each term. Search by date or filter for specific types of events and add them to your calendar so you don’t miss a step, and follow the GBC social channels to stay up-to-date on news and events.
Events may be recorded so be mindful of what you share online. Message moderators privately if you do not want to share information publicly. For more on privacy and your online presence check out our Tips for Online Etiquette. And if you're a new students, don't forget to sign up for your program specific Academic Orientations.
Planning on attending one of these events, and want to ensure that we have the right accommodations for you? Email us at orientation@georgebrown.ca with the event title, date and time, and we'll do our best to make this accessible to you!
