# Events

The Pager emits the [`pageChange`](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-angular-ui-develop/components/pager/api/pagechangeevent) and [`pageSizeChange`](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-angular-ui-develop/components/pager/api/pagesizechangeevent) events.

## Handling the Events

To process the data when the Pager current page is changed, handle the `pageChange` event, which exposes the `skip` and `take` values that are necessary for obtaining the desired items.

The `pageSizeChange` event is triggered when the user selects a new value from the PageSizes dropdown. If not prevented, it also triggers the `pageChange` event with the new page size with a `skip` value equal to `0`.

## Preventing the PageSizeChange Event

In some scenarios it may prove useful to prevent the [`pageSizeChange` Pager event](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-angular-ui-develop/components/pager/api/pagesizechangeevent) and to perform some custom logic.

The following example demonstrates how to open a confirmation dialog when the page size is greater than some arbitrary value, set by the developer, as displaying that many items may cause performance issues.
