Dear colleagues,

I am pleased to announce that Colin Bartley has been appointed the Acting Associate Dean, Culinary, Baking, Hospitality and Tourism for the Longo Faculty of Business.

Colin has worked as a faculty member and program coordinator since 2013. He holds an MBA from the University of Guelph and is a graduate of Humber’s Culinary Management as well as the Hotel and Restaurant Management diplomas. In addition to almost ten years of post-secondary experience, Colin has more than 25 years of corporate business experience in the hospitality and tourism sector. Colin held several progressive management roles with Delta Hotels & Resorts and with American Express Canada which included having served as Director of Travel Partner Network (Leisure Travel) as well as Director Global Accounts & Large Market clients (Business Travel).

At Humber, Colin has blended his business background and education to bring meaningful and impactful opportunities to life for students. During the past ten years Colin has been involved in curriculum development (diploma, degree and graduate certificate levels), supported the creation and launch of the new Retirement Home graduate certificate and has participated in numerous college initiatives including the inaugural Longo Faculty of Business EDI committee.

I look forward to working with Colin and his team to ensure that we continue to create opportunities for teaching and learning in this cluster.

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.
