As part of our ongoing commitment to open dialogue and keeping our community informed, we invite you to join one of our upcoming Town Hall sessions with Ann Marie Vaughan, president and CEO of Humber, and members of our Executive Team. These sessions are for employees only. 

These sessions build on the conversation we began at our Town Halls in January around Humber’s budget and our shared future. As we continue these discussions, we want to ensure employees have the space to ask questions, stay informed, and engage with leadership and colleagues across Humber’s campuses.

To ensure broad participation, we are hosting multiple in-person sessions across all campuses. Each session will cover the same content, so we ask that employees select only one session to attend to allow space for as many colleagues as possible to participate.

Registration links are below:

• Tuesday, April 8 – North Campus, Barrett CTI, 5th Floor
  • 10 a.m. – COMPLETE
  • 3 p.m. – COMPLETE 
• Wednesday, April 9 – Downtown Campus, IGS405

Please note that there will be no hybrid attendance option, and these sessions will not be recorded. Due to space limitations, proof of registration will be required upon entry.  

We look forward to seeing you there and continuing this important conversation together. 

Thank you!
