Announcements
Showcase your program in a public, creative way through Humber's Gallery! The Call for Proposals for the 2015-16 academic year is now open. In addition to the Lakeshore gallery, we’re excited to announce a new gallery space at the North Campus, scheduled to open in September 2015.
Since 2012, Humber's Gallery has acted as a learning lab for students, faculty & staff, and industry organizations. Through an arts-based approach, we can find new ways to educate, promote, and engage with various subject matter. With our focus on innovation at Humber College, the gallery is the public platform in which that creativity is encouraged and activated.
We hope that your school, program or department will consider an exhibition for the 2015-16 academic year. You do not need to be an artist or curator - just bring a creative idea to your proposal and the gallery staff will help guide you through the exhibition process.
Please review the Application Form and Terms & Conditions (humber.ca/lakeshorecampus/lspacegallery/resources) or contact Curator, Tara Mazurk (tara.mazurk@humber.ca) to receive a proposal package.
PROPOSAL DEADLINES: For Fall/Winter (September 2015 to May 2016) Exhibitions: April 3rd, 2015 by 5pm
We can’t wait to see Humber’s creative ideas for the upcoming academic year!

There are over 40 publicly accessed AEDs (defibrillators) installed throughout Humber campuses and buildings. As a continuation of the AED initiative and to complement the presence of Public Safety security guards who are all trained in first aid, we are looking at growing a roster of Humber employees who are trained in CPR and the use of defibrillators throughout all Humber buildings. HRS|Health and Safety Services have been scheduling a series of CPR/AED courses targeting members from the Humber’s Emergency Response Team and Joint Health and Safety Committee.
CPR-C and AED training provides knowledge and skills for cardiac emergencies both inside and outside of the workplace. The 4 hour CPR/AED course will be provided by a Red Cross First Aid/CPR instructor and is intended to provide the skills and confidence needed to recognize and respond to cardiovascular emergencies and choking either in the workplace or at home. The course will also familiarize you with the AEDs that have recently been installed on campus and how to use them. Successful completion leads to a CPR-C certification from the Canadian Red Cross.
We still have some spaces left in our March courses and are opening them up to Humber employees, particularly those who work in close proximity to an AED.
- North Campus (Room H407), Thu, March 12, 2015, 8:00 am to 12:00 pm
- Lakeshore Campus (Room L1011), Fri, March 6, 2015, 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm
- Lakeshore Campus (Room A170), Mon, March 9, 2015, 8:00 am to 12:00 pm
If you are interested, please contact Humaira Pirooz at humaira.pirooz@humber.ca or ext. 4866.
Please note that those with a current First Aid or CPR-C/AED certificate are not eligible for this training.
