Inclusive Curricular Design encompasses the key elements of multiple teaching and learning approaches to offer a robust and accessible learning experience for all students. The principles of inclusive curriculum design focus on a proactive rather than reactive approach to course design and are founded in equity, collaboration, flexibility and accountability. This Certificate addresses the idea that students are not meant to fit into a traditional “one size fits all” model of education and that applying the principles of inclusive design will ensure that the range of student diversities, abilities, and needs are being met through a number of teaching and learning strategies.

The Certificate is comprised of seven 3-hour learning modules, a coaching session, and a reflection activity. Upon successful completion of these components, participants receive a Certificate of Completion.

This Certificate has been accredited by the Society for Teaching and Learning in Higher Education (STLHE) - Educational Developers Caucus (EDC) of Canada to ensure quality in teaching and learning. For more information, please visit EDC Accreditation information.

Note: The modules must be taken in the following order: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.

ICDC Module 1: Foundations of Inclusive Design This module explores the role of inclusive design in optimizing the experience of all learners. Participants will be introduced to the universal design for learning (UDL) guidelines, which will be applied throughout the Inclusive Curricular Design Certificate program. Participants will also explore the post-secondary student experience through discussion and simulation and will reflect on the importance of adopting inclusive design practices.

This week, Humber will be represented at all three Toronto Pride marches! There's still time to register to march with us! Be sure to follow us on social media for the most current updates and any changes to the pride schedule! @humberLGBTQ on Twitter and @humberlgbtq on Instagram.

Trans March – Friday, June 22: Rally 7 p.m. | March 8 p.m.

For full details, including meet up times and locations, check out: humber.ca/lgbtq/events/trans-march

Via Pride Toronto: Toronto’s Trans March is officially one of the largest, most exciting Pride events in the world – not only for all the trans and non-binary folks, friends, and allies who rally and march together in solidarity, but for anyone who is lucky enough to witness the landmark event. Trans women of colour and people with different abilities are encouraged to lead the march and set the pace for all. Join us at the intersection of Church and Hayden streets as we make our way along Bloor, south on Yonge, and east on Carlton to Allan Gardens where we host a fantastic lineup of trans performers for a post-March showcase until 10 p.m. “Trans” is an umbrella term that refers to all the identities within the gender identity spectrum. It includes but is not limited to community members who identify as transgender, transsexual, transvestite, genderqueer, gender-fluid, gender-independent, non-binary, third gender, two-spirit, and bi-gender.

Dyke March – Saturday, June 23: Rally 1 p.m. | March 2 p.m.

For full details, including meet up times and locations, check out: humber.ca/lgbtq/events/dyke-march

Via Pride Toronto: The Toronto Dyke March is a political demonstration of critical mass, welcoming all self-identified dykes to create political and visible space. This grassroots event is not a parade. The women and trans people of our dyke community take over the streets of downtown Toronto to celebrate our power, strength, diversity and passion of dyke experiences and identities. We will reflect on our history, celebrate our accomplishments, learn from our past, honour where we've come from and lift voices that have been silenced and forgotten. Join us for the post-march rally in Allan Gardens for performances, crafting and even more dyke-community building.

Pride Parade – Sunday, June 24: Humber March Time 3:15 p.m.

For full details, including meet up times and locations, check out: humber.ca/lgbtq/events/pride-parade

Via Pride Toronto: Costumes, choreography, and colour! Stand loud and proud with more than 120 groups marching in Pride Toronto’s Pride Parade, one of the largest in North America. This is the weekend’s premier event, bursting with performances, floats, marchers with messages, queens, kings, outstanding community groups, and more glitter than you can shake a disco stick at. For the second year in a row, Miss Conception will be calling the play by play at our announcer stage. The procession starts at 2 p.m. at the corner of Bloor and Church and stomps its way down Yonge Street to the Dundas Square stage. Don’t miss this massive street gathering of amazing folks who make our community what it is.

Happy Pride!
