Please note that the International Centre at the Lakeshore Campus has had a temporary location change; we are unsure of the duration of this adjustment.

Effective Monday, November 6, we will support in-person students from D205 (as well as via our usual virtual platforms).

At this time, appointments with the International Student Advisors (our immigration experts) at Lakeshore will be done via return phone call until we can secure an appropriate, confidential meeting space for the advising to take place.

Further information will be provided as it becomes available.

Members of the Lakeshore Admissions team (who process international applications) will be temporarily housed in the Office of the Registrar.

Humber’s Human Rights & Harassment Policy and associated Complaint Resolution Procedure have been updated. View the updated policy.

The leading practice is to review such policies every five years. The Office of Human Rights & Harassment received feedback from parties across the Humber community. This feedback and advances in leading practice were taken into account in the updates. We engaged in consultation with relevant groups across the Humber Community before finalizing the documents.

Specific updates include ensuring the Policy was straightforward and easy to understand with the protected grounds, scope, and responsibilities clearly defined, updating and adding definitions, and modernizing the Procedure.

Please take some time to familiarize yourself with the Policy and Procedure as they apply to all members of the Humber Community.

To learn more about the updates and ask us any questions you may have, please join us for an information session on November 27, 2023 at 12 p.m.  

If you have any questions, please contact humanrights@humber.ca.

Thank you for your continued commitment to fostering a respectful, discrimination and harassment-free working, learning and living environment at Humber.
