As more employees are transitioning back to working on campus, hybrid working arrangements are being considered. For many, this will be their first time working in a hybrid working arrangement. A hybrid working arrangement means that on any given day, team members may be working on campus, remotely, and on different work schedules.  

To prepare managers and employees for hybrid working arrangements, detailed training sessions have been developed to support employees and managers in the transition to hybrid working arrangements. Training topics will include Humber’s Remote Working Policy and hybrid working, managing and contributing in a hybrid working arrangement, ensuring well-being while working in a hybrid working arrangement, workplace safety, and technology needs for hybrid working. 

The first modules available in the training series are as indicated below. There will be multiple dates for all training sessions from November 2021 until February 2022. 

Note: January and February training dates will be announced shortly. 

Each training session has a maximum of 60 participants, but additional sessions will be scheduled based on demand.
