Get into Insurance! 

The insurance industry is referred to as a hidden secret by those that are working in it as it is filled with opportunities that offer advancement, variety and excellent compensation packages. Insurance is also at the forefront of technology and current events.

It is also a great time to consider this industry as 35% of the industry is retiring in the next five years. This means that there is a wide array of opportunities for students just like you. Get a better understanding of what an exciting career in insurance could be like from Canada's top leaders in the industry.

Find out: 

  • How the industry is changing, and the skills that are in high demand
  • How to pursue a successful career in the industry
  • Tips for successful industry interviews and resumes
  • A 360 view of Humber's Insurance Management Program, and how it can help fast track your insurance career
  • A chance to speak to students that have successfully completed the Insurance Management Program, and are currently working in the Insurance industry

Mental Health First Aid Workshop June 11 and 12 Register now!

(All spots have been filled)

One in three Canadians will experience a mental health problem at some point in their life. The earlier a problem is detected and treated, the better the outcome. Mental Health First Aid Canada gives people the skills to provide that early help that is so important to recovery.

Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is the help provided to a person developing a mental health problem or experiencing a mental health crisis. Just as physical first aid is administered to an injured person before medical treatment can be obtained, MHFA is given until appropriate treatment is found or until the crisis is resolved.

The MHFA Canada program aims to improve mental health literacy, and provide the skills and knowledge to help people better manage potential or developing mental health problems in themselves, a family member, a friend or a colleague.

This two-day certificate program does not teach people how to be therapists; it does teach people how to:

  • Recognize the signs and symptoms of mental health problems
  • Provide initial help
  • Guide a person towards appropriate professional help

MHFA shares the same overall purpose as traditional first aid – to save lives. It aims to:

  • Preserve life where a person may be a danger to themselves or others
  • Provide help to prevent the mental health problem from developing into a more serious state
  • Promote the recovery of good mental health
  • Provide comfort to a person experiencing a mental health problem
Date* June 11 and June 12, 2019 (*must attend both days)
Time 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Location North Campus – Room TBC

Refreshments will be provided along with lunch daily.

With Ontario’s commitment to be a fully accessible province by 2025 through the implementation of the AODA, knowing how to create accessible learning materials is crucial! Humber College has committed to Accessible Education as one of its Strategic Pillars. Creating and providing accessible documents is about inclusion, equity, and social responsibility.

PART 1 & 2:

Creating Accessible Documents (Part 1 and 2) will review WCAG accessibility guidelines, requirements and issues for digital content and documents. In these hands-on workshops, participants will learn the fundamentals of creating accessible materials and modify inaccessible content to comply with accessibility standards. As well, participants will be introduced to the use of accessibility checkers in PowerPoint, Word and Acrobat Pro and the different features in these software applications to make documents accessible.

You will walk away with strategies and a toolbox full of apps and resources to help with making your content accessible.

NOTE: Creating Accessible Documents Part One and Part Two are part of the Inclusive Curriculum Design Certificate. However, you are welcome to take both as stand-alone modules outside of the certificate. It is a pre-requisite to take Part 1 before Part 2 and both before Part 3. 

PART 3:

After participating in Creating Accessible Documents Part 1 and Part 2, you feel confident that you can recognize accessibility issues in digital documents and are able to apply the AODA and WCAG guidelines and requirements to make them accessible. Now that you have gone back to your own materials and documents and given accessibility a try, you may have some further questions. Creating Accessible Documents Part 3 is a drop-in working session you can get those questions answered. Come to this session with your documents that you would like to make accessible and that you may have questions about. We will brainstorm, analyze, and find solutions to your accessibility issues!

NOTE: Please bring at least one document (PowerPoint or Word) that you would like to make accessible. 

It is a pre-requisite to take Part 1 before Part 2 and both before Part 3.

Part 1: Wed., May 22, 2019, 1 to 4 p.m. North: D225J Register
