  2. Must provide valuable competency development per the CCR Competencies Framework.
  3. Have an approved affiliation with Humber or Guelph-Humber per validator’s departmental protocol.
  4. Can be accurately validated by a staff/faculty member.
  5. All activities must adhere to the Code of Student Conduct.

Do you currently supervise a student experience on campus that is not on the CCR yet? Contact us to make this experience CCR Certified at ccr@humber.ca

I am writing to share the news with you that Jerry Chomyn will be retiring as Program Head of Media Studies at the University of Guelph-Humber as of August 31, 2018.

After leading a successful career in broadcast journalism Jerry ventured into the world of postsecondary education, where he has spent more than three decades leading innovative, award-winning media programs.

Jerry was an influential figure in the Radio Broadcasting program at Humber College where he served as Director of Broadcast Media. He was successful in securing the first FM radio license for a college in Toronto, received Humber’s Innovator of the Year Award, and was inducted into the Radio Humber Hall of Fame.

For the past eight years Jerry has served as head of the Media Studies program at the University of Guelph-Humber. During this time he has redeveloped the program to reflect a multi-disciplined, multi-platform approach to the theoretical and practical sides of media studies curriculum. Jerry has forged international partnerships with universities in Argentina, China, Germany, and Austria, and media students have won more than 200 international content creation awards competing against top North American universities.

I invite you to join us for a celebration of Jerry’s career as a broadcast journalist and lifelong educator, which will take place on Tuesday, October 30 from 3:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Please mark your calendars as further event details to follow.

With thanks,

Dr. John Walsh
