Public Safety testing of emergency messages will take place from June 24 to 27.

Humber College and the University of Guelph-Humber (hereafter referred to as Humber) take the safety of our community seriously. This includes the ability to notify community members of an emergency.

In order to ensure that our emergency mass notification systems work as required and expected, the Department of Public Safety conducts semi-annual testing of our mass notification systems. The next testing of our systems is scheduled to take place from June 24 to 27, 2024. Testing will require the playing of emergency messages through the Public Address (PA) System.

Testing of the emergency messages will take place as follows:

• Monday/Tuesday, June 24 and 25   
  • North Campus, including 30 and 110 Carrier Drive and residence buildings.
  • Testing will take place between 6 and 10 p.m. Residence testing will be complete by 9 p.m.
• Wednesday/Thursday, June 26 and 27
  • Lakeshore Campus, including residence buildings.
  • Testing will take place between 6 and 10 p.m. Residence testing will be complete by 9 p.m.

An announcement will be made via the PA prior to the start of the testing and once the testing is complete.

Questions or concerns can be directed to Kathy Branton, manager of Business Continuity and Emergency Management, at kathy.branton@humber or x5550.
