Google Calendar integration
Yes, one way. An administrator connects one Google account per organisation as the organiser. When a live session is scheduled, Personal Academy creates the event in that organiser's primary calendar and Google emails the attendees; when the session is cancelled, the event is deleted. Changes made in Google Calendar do not flow back. Video links come from Zoom or Microsoft Teams, not Google.
See pricing (from $1 per active user)
Included from the Basic plan, $1 per active user per month.
At a glance
The connection uses the calendar.events scope only. A Microsoft calendar connection works the same way for Outlook organisations.
