FAQ

Workshops and Events

Find answers to our most frequent questions about OSCIA delivered workshops and events.

Workshops Events

From the Environmental Farm Plan (EFP) to commodity-specific Biosecurity Workshops, OSCIA has a deep-rooted history delivering workshops and webinars to Ontario’s farming community. Some workshops are offered in different formats (e.g., in-person, webinar). To find the right opportunity for you, information on workshops can be found here.

There is no fee to attend a workshop or webinar, but pre-registration is required. Workshops may not run without a minimum number of registrants.

Different workshops may be tailored to specific commodities or at different stages of the process. For example, an eEFP is for participants who have completed an in-person 3rd or 4th edition workshop and are simply wanting to update their workbook, while the biosecurity workshops and webinars are tailored to specific commodities.  

Information including dates, times, and the location of scheduled in-person workshops and biosecurity webinars can be found here. You can register online for a workshop through osciaportal.org If you do not already have a user account, you must create one before you can register. If you do not see a workshop in your area or if you have questions about a workshop, contact your local OSCIA Field Staff by phone or email.
