Accessible Learning Services shares some best practices considerations:

  • Accessible Learning Services (ALS) Best Practice Considerations posted in the Communiqué focus on equipping faculty to better support students with disabilities. To every extent possible, ALS encourages students to be actively involved in the accommodation process. 

  • For example, students with disabilities connected with ALS are responsible for renewing their Accommodation Letter each semester.  

  • Students are required to contact faculty to request accommodations in advance of a test and/or in advance of an assignment due date to request an extension. 

  • We encourage faculty to actively dialogue with students regarding accommodation requests. 

Visit our ALS Information for Faculty website to learn more about accommodating students with disabilities. 

Please email us at accessible-learning@humber.ca with suggestions for key accessibility-related topics that you would like us to address through the Communiqué.

Human Rights & Harassment Policy and Complaint Resolution Procedure Update
View in full page
When:
November 1, 2023

Humber’s Human Rights & Harassment Policy and associated Complaint Resolution Procedure have been updated. View the updated policy.

The leading practice is to review such policies every five years. The Office of Human Rights & Harassment received feedback from parties across the Humber community. This feedback and advances in leading practice were taken into account in the updates. We engaged in consultation with relevant groups across the Humber Community before finalizing the documents.

Specific updates include ensuring the Policy was straightforward and easy to understand with the protected grounds, scope, and responsibilities clearly defined, updating and adding definitions, and modernizing the Procedure.

Please take some time to familiarize yourself with the Policy and Procedure as they apply to all members of the Humber Community.

To learn more about the updates and ask us any questions you may have, please join us for an information session on November 27, 2023 at 12 p.m.  

If you have any questions, please contact humanrights@humber.ca.

Thank you for your continued commitment to fostering a respectful, discrimination and harassment-free working, learning and living environment at Humber.
