Wednesday, November 6, 2013

The “Take Our Kids to Work” day is a popular and rewarding program which allows grade nine students to shadow a parent, relative or friend, and experience a day in the life of an adult at work. Students get a first-hand look at activities, skills and career choices in today’s workplace, as well as an appreciation of their parents’ work lives.

Safety First! The safety of our young visitors is a top priority and Humber has prepared some guidelines to help parents, supervisors and managers make this learning experience a safe one.

  • Let your manager know well in advance that you will be bringing a student to the workplace, and agree on which activities the student will take part in.
  • Check out the workplace ahead of time for potential safety issues particularly from a youth perspective. Maintain a high level of housekeeping

On the day of:

  • Provide students with an orientation that emphasizes health, safety and security. Tour the workplace and explain the types of hazards and the safety procedures that apply. Ensure that students wear any required personal protective equipment (e.g. safety glasses, gloves, hearing protection, footwear). Discuss Humber’s policy for preventing workplace violence and harassment. Students at the North campus will be required to take part in the lockdown exercise; let them know what is expected of them.
  • Allow students to undertake tasks and experiences in environments that are safe, and ensure that they follow all safety rules. Students must not be allowed to operate motorized equipment or higher risk machinery or equipment. Accompany or closely supervise students at all times.
  • Encourage students to ask questions, speak about health and safety concerns, and comment on situations they observe throughout the day.

Here’s to an enjoyable learning experience for students and their parents/sponsors!

Join us to explore the domains of cultural dimensions: power orientation, individualism/collectivism, masculinity/femininity, uncertainty avoidance and time orientation. How do we provide opportunities for our students to transform through the stages of intercultural competence in the classroom? Take time to assess your own identity and translate that awareness and understanding into reflective action.

In Spring, 2012, Humber launched a Mental Health First Aid training initiative with the goal of helping our community members better understand how to support one another. We know that 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 in 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.

The 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.


Recognizing the importance of these issues, Deans, Associate Deans and other senior administrative leaders all completed this two day course in May 2012. Over 200 additional Humber community members have been trained since – including Program Coordinators, Student Success and Engagement staff and faculty, HSF leaders, Resident Assistants, and Registration staff. We are now offering this training opportunity to the broader community, and welcome your registration to participate.

Please note: this is a certificate course, and participants must be available to complete the full 14 hours of the course, typically delivered over two full days.

All sessions 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.

More information about this program and what the course covers can be found at www.mentalhealthfirstaid.ca.

 Please register for any of these workshops via the Training & Development registration form.
