Annually, Humber Polytechnic and the University of Guelph-Humber participate in the Take Our Kids to Work Day program. This is a hands-on experiential learning event for grade 9 children of Humber and the University of Guelph-Humber employees. 

This year’s theme is ‘Lift Up the Future’ to help support the young minds as they explore their paths and imagine the world they want to build. At Humber we provide a unique combination of programming that includes academia and industry to foster a culture of innovation that gives the Humber Edge! 

This year, the program will be held on Wednesday, November 5 and will be hosted at North Campus.  

Employees who are interested and would like their grade 9 child(ren) to participate, please complete the Take Our Kids to Work Day Registration Form by Friday, October 31. Once registered, a member of our team (Organizational Development) will contact you via email to confirm and provide additional details of the event.    

Through this event, grade 9 students will get an opportunity to explore a variety of careers and program sectors and will learn what skills are important to thrive in the world of work. The goal of this event is to empower students to make informed decisions and ignite their curiosity of what is possible for their future.
