The Industry and Community Connector Hub (ICHub) is where students, academia, and industry converge. Here, they collaborate on projects to solve real-time business problems and drive innovation and real-world experience.

The HLOs and the Employability Skills Hub
The Employability Skills Hub is a tool for learners to articulate employability skills. As a learner you can use the tool to reflect on your experiences inside and outside of the classroom as you develop key mindsets, critical thinking and skills in action that form the Humber Learning Outcomes. The Employability Skills Hub challenges you to reflect on your experiences in ways that will support you on your professional journey.
