The following two (2) certificates have been developed specifically for current Humber faculty by the Innovative Learning team. The certificates are delivered in an asynchronous online format with a facilitator. Participants who achieve 50 per cent or more in each course will receive a Certificate of Participation. 

There is no fee associated with these certificates. Please note that space is limited. 

The Inclusive Curricular Design Certificate (ICDC) introduces course participants to the Universal Design for Learning (UDL) framework.  ICDC explores how the UDL framework can guide the creation of inclusive, equitable and accessible learning experiences for all students. The principles of UDL are founded in equity, collaboration, flexibility and accountability, and encourage a proactive, skill-building approach to course design that fosters the development of expert learners. Participants will apply these principles to ensure that the learners’ needs are met through a number of teaching and learning strategies. ICDC is offered online during the fall semester. 

The Culturally Inclusive Educator Certificate (CIEC) is designed for educators who aspire to create culturally sustaining and responsive learning experiences for adult learners. It emphasizes the importance of supporting multilingual learners, recognizing the unique challenges and opportunities that cultural and linguistic diversity brings to the educational environment. The courses within this certificate provide participants with opportunities to explore the impact of culture on learner’s identity and to critically examine current teaching and learning practices that ignore or suppress learner diversity.  Course participants will acquire strategies to enhance their knowledge and skills in intercultural understanding, communication and curriculum development.
