Announcements

When:
August 26, 2019

As you know, the Communiqué website and daily newsletter are Humber’s primary employee/ internal communication channels.

The website and email have been redesigned with a modern, fresh look that is mobile compatible, and has many new features, including enhanced analytics. For example, if you are interested in how many clicks your Communiqué submission received, please send an email to communique@humber.ca.

We hope you will explore the redesigned Communiqué webpage in the coming weeks and continue to check back for all the latest news.

The new Communiqué also features Employee News Network (ENN) – news for employees by employees. Developed by staff from across multiple departments, this user-generated news channel is aimed at highlighting employee achievements, new initiatives, milestones and announcements. Communiqué content standards and submission guidelines, along with ENN video submissions can be made here

All approved ENN videos will appear on the Communiqué website and selected videos will be featured in the daily newsletter. The Communications team approves all content before publication in Communiqué and on ENN.

We are looking forward to sharing more of the great work taking place at Humber and the milestones reached by all of you.

You will also be able to find the latest news and information from President Chris Whitaker on the redesigned Chris’ Corner webpage. Check out his latest Tweets, blog posts and messages.

As you get familiar with the new look and feel of these communication channels, we welcome your feedback at communique@humber.ca.

Thank you to everyone who worked on these projects.
