Avril Carnovale, Associate Dean, The Business School
View in full page
When:
May 13, 2015

After fourteen years at Humber College, Avril Carnovale has decided to retire this summer. Avril has a long history with the Business School as a partial load professor, program coordinator and administrator. Avril has been a student champion, supported our international initiatives in Jimei and in Cebu, was instrumental in developing the Cosmetic Management Diploma program and the Fashion Management Graduate Certificate program as well as led the school in transitioning to MyIT Lab.

As Associate Dean, Avril enthusiastically supported the many school-based events including hosting the Ontario Colleges Marketing Competition, the annual “Walk-It Out” Fashion Event, fund-raising in the Spa, and “Grads Give Back”, just to name a few. Avril enjoyed meeting with students and parents during Open House and at Orientation. She was the first point of contact for many new part-time faculty joining the Business School. 

Avril will be remembered fondly by the many students she has served and the faculty and admin teams she worked with throughout her career at Humber College. The Business School will be holding a celebration for Avril at the end of June.

Please join me in wishing Avril the very best in her well-deserved retirement.
