Please note that it has come to our attention that all Humber T4s that were issued on February 23, 2018 are missing an important piece of information. Box 26 on the T4 forms that were generated do not display the correct amount for each employee’s actual CPP pensionable earnings (not related to CAAT Pension). 

The Humber HR team is amending the original T4s to include the amounts for CPP pensionable earnings and the corrected file will be sent to Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) by the end of this week. The corrected T4s will also be reprinted and hard copies will be mailed to all employees next week.

If you have already proceeded with filing your 2017 taxes using the T4 you received, please consult the following link for information as to how to refile your taxes:

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. For additional information, please review the frequently asked questions (FAQs) at hrs.humber.ca/t4.

Humber’s Digital Learning Strategy acknowledges that our fundamental commitment to excellence will be fully reflected in the ongoing development of Digital Learning, including the creation and curation of Open Educational Resources (OER). Humber is currently undertaking an institutional inventory of OER use in courses across all programs and schools. This inventory will be a useful tool for helping to identify opportunities for increased adoption of OER in support of learning.

In 2018, Humber official joined the Open Educational Resource University (OERu). Coordinated by the OER Foundation, an independent, not-for-profit organization, the OERu network of institutions offers free online courses for students worldwide and provides affordable ways for learners to gain academic credit towards qualifications from recognized institutions.

Joining OERu formalizes Humber’s continued re-conceptualization of student access and program delivery frameworks and supports our aim to increase access to mobile and ubiquitous learning and reshape our physical and virtual campuses in order to facilitate 21st-century education. Partnering with OERu aligns with Humber’s digital learning strategic goal to innovate through a networked community within and beyond the College to respond to emerging trends and priorities in our local, national and global communities.  

Want to learn more? Contact Humber’s Director of Digital Curriculum, Theresa Steger (theresa.steger@humber.ca).

Stay tuned for tomorrow’s topic on Open Media Resources.
