The following six (6) micro-credentials have been developed specifically for current Humber faculty by the Innovative Learning team. All micro-credentials are delivered in an asynchronous online format. Each micro-credential consists of four modules, or 12 hours of curriculum delivery. Micro-credential participants who achieve 50 per cent or more in all assessments will receive a badge. 

There is no fee or cost associated to register for the micro-credential. Please note that space is limited.

Assessments for Learning 
Focuses on assessments and evaluations in the teaching and learning cycle. Faculty will consider ways to design and deliver assessments so that they are part of the learning process instead of a product of learning.  

Curriculum Design & Development 
Familiarizes faculty with the curriculum development process. Faculty will review ways to plan and create a well-designed and thoughtfully sequenced curriculum for a course or program.  

Educational Technology and Accessibility           
An introduction to accessibility, applications with technology and how these considerations can increase inclusion for all learners. Faculty will be able to assess variability in various learning environments in order to establish accessibility needs and select edtech tools to support their access.  

Equity and Anti-Oppressive Teaching in Post-Secondary Education 
Intended to build capacity among Humber College staff in relation to equitable and anti-oppressive teaching. Participants will become familiar with the core tenets of equitable and anti-oppressive teaching, including identifying one’s own positionality, distinguishing between equality and equity, and engaging in critical self-reflexivity.  

Facilitating Learning 
Engages faculty to think about the strategies to create impactful and intentional learning experiences. Throughout the MC, faculty will consider how the facilitation of content – whether in a classroom or other setting – can support learning and professional development.  

Teaching and Learning in HyFlex Environments 
Introduces faculty to the methods, practices, and tools for adapting an existing in-person lesson plan for HyFlex teaching. Faculty will review strategies and methods to create a learning experience that engages learners in all three modalities and ensures an equivalent experience for all students.

After a wonderful 20-year career at Humber, Sarah-Jane Greenway is moving on to a new role as Director, Academic Planning at Seneca College in late August.

In a career that spanned the Registrar’s Office, Program Planning Development & Renewal, and the Academic Division, Sarah-Jane led successful initiatives in the areas of recruitment, admissions, records, registration, fees, program reviews, degree consent renewals, program mapping, curriculum changes, and student success and engagement. 

In 2018, Sarah-Jane moved to the Academic Division, first as Acting Associate Dean in the School of Creative & Performing Arts, and later as Associate Dean, Journalists & Writers in the Faculty of Media & Creative Arts. As a very experienced and accomplished administrator with profound institutional knowledge, strong leadership skills and kind and generous management style, Sarah-Jane established herself as a key resource for her peers, faculty and support staff teams managing effectively what has proven to be a period of intense and accelerated change.

I am personally very grateful for all Sarah-Jane’s contributions to our team and for her generous support to me and the rest of the team every time it was needed. I will miss having Sarah-Jane as part of our leadership team.

Please join me in wishing Sarah-Jane the very best in this new chapter in her career.

Sincerely,

Guillermo Acosta
Senior Dean, Faculty of Media & Creative Arts

The International Development Institute's project partners from Kenya, Bhutan, Peru and Indonesia enrolled in Humber College's Global Summer School Program 2023.

Nine of IDI's international project partners had the opportunity to travel to Humber College on a month-long exchange for knowledge-sharing, promoting cultural understanding and diversity, and fostering global relationships.

The group attended classes daily to enhance and develop their knowledge, skills and capacity in hands-on learning opportunities in the classroom. The group of nine also continued their educational journey at Humber outside of the classroom by fostering relationships with one another and learning and appreciating diverse cultures and differing perspectives.

The Global Summer School was a fantastic opportunity for IDI's international partners to meet each other and share their knowledge, expertise and overall learning experiences. The program contributed to the development of individuals, organizations, and societies while fostering global cooperation and addressing pressing global challenges.
