Bronze for Humber at WorldSkills

Humber grads Theo Willert and Avery Bird have won bronze in the mechatronics category at the WorldSkills 2017 competition in Abu Dhabi, UAE.

The two electromechanical engineering grads, who previously won gold in mechatronics at Skills Ontario and Skills Canada, also won Best In Nation for their performance among the other Canadian competitors.

This is the first time Canadian competitors have won a medal at the bi-annual WorldSkills competition. They were the only Canadian team that medaled this year.

CTL: Blackboard - Retention, Reports & Tracking

The new Blackboard environment comes with a host of tools that enable faculty to track student success/engagement, create rules and warning notifications, track individual content areas and forums as well as monitor individual document usage rates. Learn how Blackboard’s reporting tools can help you keep track of student engagement and help initiate critical conversations with your students.
