Storytelling Workshop - Tell Your Climate Story

Coming together to share our experiences and emotions related to climate change can strengthen feelings of connection and belonging that can help deal with eco-anxiety.

You will be presented with concrete examples and guidelines for how to write an engaging personal story.

National Co-Op and WIL Month/Day (March/March 23)
View in full page
When:
February 25, 2022

March is National Co-op and WIL month with March 23 being the official National Day of WIL. Nationally, partners in Co-op & WIL use this month to showcase the important value of these experiences to both students and employers and to celebrate the many innovative partnerships in this space. 

We are appreciative of the ongoing efforts from faculty, staff, and our community and industry partners that make Work-Integrated Learning (WIL) possible for Humber students. To recognize the achievements of these individuals, we are asking for staff at Humber to join our social media campaign to post their own WIL-related content. 

We hope you consider including student success stories, highlighting key individuals responsible for WIL, showcasing WIL projects with community/industry partners, or any other key WIL information you’d like to share.  I know from speaking to students directly just how important these experiences are in their academic journey, and in our goal of bringing learning to life!

Please include the following hashtags on your social media content so that folks can follow along with the conversation: #HumberWILPower, #InspiredWIL. 

Please contact jill.rosenberg@humber.ca if you have any questions. 

Thank you to all who support WIL at Humber.

Co-Chair of Experiential Learning/Work-Integrated Learning Working Group

Humber, you did it! Thanks to the hard work of staff and faculty over 83% of the courses running in winter became mobile-friendly, using Blackboard Ultra. Now most of our students can learn how they want, where they want.

Check out these celebratory videos from Humber Innovative Learning. Listen to your Humber colleagues share their stories. Hear what surprised them, what they learned, and what made them dance with joy!
