Launch Me workshops are designed to help students and alumni develop skills that will ultimately help take their business idea to the next level. The series consists of three sections including Lean Canvas, Business Plan Development, and Business Pitch training.

All workshops are led by Kevin Smith, an entrepreneur, an expert in start ups. These workshops will give you the tools and skills you need to enter and excel in the competition. This year, the Launch Me competition has increased its seed funding pool to $20,000!! Tell your students!

We are currently in phase two of the series, focusing on the Business Plan Development. Remember, attendance to ALL Business Plan Development workshops are mandatory to enter the competition. Launch Me workshops will be available online to registrants.

I am proud to announce the OTA/PTA program was granted accreditation until November 30, 2024. 

The Occupational Therapist Assistant (OTA) and Physiotherapist Assistant Program (PTA) at Humber has been accredited by the Occupational Therapist Assistant and Physiotherapist Assistant Education Accreditation Program (OTA & PTA EAP) in collaboration with Physiotherapy Education Accreditation Canada (PEAC) and the Canadian Association of Occupational Therapists (CAOT).

These fantastic results are attributed to the hard work, dedication, and commitment to excellence of the faculty, staff and administration involved in the program, and I offer my sincere thanks for a job well done.
