On March 18, 2015, The Business School Placement Centre hosted a Lunch & Learn for TJX Canada’s Retail Management Graduate Program (Winners, HomeSense, Marshalls).
The Retail Management Graduate Program offers graduates the opportunity to take on a management role at a retail location. Typically a retail manager is required to have 3-5 years of full-time work experience before they will be considered for a management role within TJX Canada. With their Retail Management Graduate Program, however, graduates are immediately considered for the role of either Assistant Manager of Customer Service & Operations or Assistant Manager of Merchandise.
At the event, we were joined by Natalie Sturino, Central Region Talent Acquisition Coordinator for TJX Canada, who is the recruiter for the graduate program. Also in attendance was Kristina Merciello, a graduate from Humber’s Fashion Management degree program. As the first Humber student accepted into the Retail Management Graduate Program, Kristina was able to share her success story with students and provide insight into her journey.

Humber College is chairing the Canadian Association for the Prevention of Discrimination and Harassment in Higher Education (CAPDHHE) Conference Planning Committee. The Annual National CAPDHHE Conference will be held in Toronto, ON from May 20-22, 2014.
The 2015 CAPDHHE/ACPDHMES Conference will examine the shifting landscapes of human rights work in the postsecondary sector. The questions of who’s in and who’s out are pertinent to ensuring that human rights practitioners in Canada and beyond are engaging in true equity work and education. Human Rights Practitioners must develop increased understanding of inequity and its impact on all people in order to support the increased presence of Aboriginal and racialized peoples in postsecondary institutions. At a time when issues of competing human rights, subtle forms of discrimination and community-based activism are bringing new complexities, challenges and opportunities to our work, it is imperative that those who work in the human rights arena answer these questions and develop strategies for redress.
Hosted in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, CAPDHHE/ACPDHMES 2015 will welcome presenters and delegates from different regions, languages and social backgrounds to give voice to the changing climate of equity work throughout the country. This year’s conference will be centred on three unique streams: Institutional Change, addressing best practices and new strategies to move the postsecondary sector forward; Activism and Communities, exploring emerging social justice movements and developing key strategies to support Aboriginal and diverse communities; and lastly, Critical Conversations, where delegates will come together to ask pertinent questions and engage in discussions critical to building more equitable campus environments for all to learn, work and live.
For more information about CAPDHHE or to register for the conference please visit the website capdhhe.org/web/

On March 5th, the Humber Human Resources Students' Association was proud to host The Annual Evening HR Conference and it was a roaring success.
The HRSA team led by Event and Communications Coordinator, Marta Tsap, and Club President, Marlies Farrill, hosted a conference at Markland Wood Golf Club. Three amazing speakers spoke about their areas of expertise:
ERNIE COETZEE - What you need to know about Employment Law
SUE DOUGLAS - How to create a culture of leadership in YOUR workplace.
RACHEL FINAN - What YOU need to know about the new era of Recruitment
Being future business professionals, the HRSA decided to support KIVA, a non-profit organization with a mission to connect people through micro financing to alleviate poverty in developing countries. The students were able to raise over $1300 for KIVA as well as hear from great speakers, and enjoy meeting fellow students, alumni, and HR professionals.
