Manual work can be boring, right? Have you already found a fun fix to save time and automate a work process at Humber?
If you’re a Humber administrative or support staff member who has found a simple fix to reduce manual work, you can share your solution and be eligible to win rewards!
Humber has a strategic initiative to reduce manual work across the organization. Have you developed a simple fix that helped you reduce manual or repetitive tasks at the office or working remotely? We want to hear all about it! If you’re a Humber support staff or a non-managerial administrative staff, we invite you to participate in the Butterfly Effect (BE) Summer Challenge!
The BE Challenge (organized by Humber’s Office of Research and Innovation, ORI) aims to discover and celebrate Humber’s front-line innovators. If you’ve already implemented a simple, low-cost or no-cost integration and/or automation solution that improved on-campus or remote work arrangements, then you might just become a finalist in the BE Challenge! To participate, fill out this simple Qualtrics form to tell us about your solution.

As the COVID-19 pandemic unravelled many aspects of everyday life, it brought to the forefront the importance of mental health and well-being. A highlight of Humber’s research project addressing this important issue is Developing a Best Practice Model for Mental Health Crisis Care: A Community-Engaged Approach.
The focus of this research project is to explore the ways in which models of community-based organizations and acute care institutions (e.g., paramedics, police, and emergency department services) can collaboratively inform the most promising practices for emergency mental health response. The project aims to develop practices to support community members in need of emergency mental health assistance, especially people of lower socioeconomic status, Black and Indigenous communities, racialized people, LGBT2SQ+ and immigrant communities.
The research project is led by Humber faculty members Polly Ford-Jones, Sheryl Thompson and Danielle Pomeroy. The Humber research team is collaborating with TAIBU Community Health Centre and Middlesex-London Paramedic Service to develop a best practice model for response to mental health crisis care.
The project received the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) College and Community Social Innovation Fund (CCSIF) grant ($360k) in 2021.

The way Humber students, staff and faculty manage their passwords has changed. As of Monday, August 1, 2022 mypassword.humber.ca will be decommissioned. Users can utilize SSPR by visiting myaccount.humber.ca to change or reset their password.
Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR) is a feature that enables users to reset their passwords without contacting ITS for help. Users can easily manage and recover their own passwords and continue working no matter where they are or time of day without the need to contact IT support.
The key benefits of enabling SSPR are:
How do I recover my password?
If you believe that your password has been compromised and that your account, on any system, is being used by another individual or if you have any questions contact the I.T. Support Centre 416.675.6622 x8888 or humber.ca/techtalk.
Humber College and University of Guelph-Humber (Humber) know that the safety of our community is paramount to ensure our students and staff can study/work in the safest space possible. When incidents do occur, a quick, efficient, reliable response from our security staff is imperative to ensuring a quick resolution. As part of its ongoing goal of continuous improvement, training and education, the Department of Public Safety (DPS) is implementing an exercise program for security guards. The aim of the exercise program is to provide real-life scenarios to guards that allows them to practice their response to various scenarios in a safe, controlled setting.
The second of these “live” exercises will take place on July 27 and 28 at both the Lakeshore and North campuses. In an effort to minimize the impact on the campus community, exercises will take place at times when fewer people are expected to be on campus. Exercises will take place as follows:
Signage will be placed in the exercise area to identify that an exercise is taking place. Exercise participants will be identified by wearing orange vests that indicate “Exercise Participant” on the back. Any community members who may be in the area are asked to not interfere with the exercise activity.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Adnan Salam, Assistant Manager, Security Operations, North Campus at adnan.salam@humber.ca or Thomas Urbaniak, Assistant Manager, Security Operations, Lakeshore Campus at thomas.urbaniak@humber.ca.
