The final exam period is upon us, and as a result, Testing Services will be operating at maximum capacity over the next few weeks.

The Lakeshore Campus Testing Centre will be extremely busy the week of April 17-21. 
We will see upwards of 150 students per day in the Lakeshore Test Centre.
 
The North Campus Testing Centre will be extremely busy the weeks of April 17-21 and 24-28.
We see upwards of 500 students per day at the North Test Centre.

• Testing Services may need to prioritize accommodated testing during the Humber and University of Guelph-Humber exam period (April 10-May 2), in order to reduce wait times and ensure that students who require accommodated testing are able to gain access. 

• Whenever possible, please refrain from sending non-accommodated testing activity to the test centres during the final exam period.  Reducing the amount of non-accommodated testing will significantly reduce wait times. 

• As a gentle reminder, when students are using the test centres, please submit exams a few days in advance to ensure a seamless check-in process.  When test referral forms are completed with all permitted materials and accommodation details clearly outlined it helps to reduce wait times for students.

Thank you in advance for your support in improving the test taking experience for students in Testing Services.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Manager, Testing & Integrated Services, Leah Barclay at extension 4696.

The Humber Showcase 2017 Conference Committee will be accepting proposals online. We will be accepting proposals starting March 13 - April 14, 2017. Submit your workshop and marketplace proposal to humber.ca/showcase.

MARKETPLACE:
Marketplace Exchange can best be described as a fair, where different schools and departments come to showcase what they do and how they support the Humber community both internally and externally. Marketplace exhibitors can highlight recent, current or future Humber projects, initiatives or research. The Marketplace Exchange takes place in the Humber Student Centre (11:30 a.m.–1:30 p.m.). Marketplace is a great opportunity to bring the Humber community together for conversation, sharing and networking.
