Digital Campus Plan
View in full page
When:
February 11, 2019

Humber College is creating a digital campus plan and we want to hear from you – our students, staff, and faculty – about what that should look like.

A digital campus is one that gives students easy access to information and course materials in order to allow them to stay connected to and work with their professors and fellow students, gain independence in course planning, and improve their overall Humber experience.

A digital campus also creates opportunities in teaching, learning and discovery and improves the workplace experience for staff and faculty.

All this week we will be posting poll questions on our Twitter and Facebook accounts and our Instagram stories. A new question each day!

Fill out the complete survey and you could win great prizes, including an iPad!

Thank you for contributing to Humber’s plan for a digital campus.
