• enabling organizations to enhance their effectiveness through customized training and<br />

lifelong learning opportunities; and<br />

• supporting our local communities through outreach activities.<br />

Humber Values<br />

Goals<br />

1.0 Lifelong Learning – Provide a high quality learning experience through a variety <strong>of</strong><br />

options and pathways that students and clients choose throughout their lives.<br />

Today’s increasingly competitive and changing global marketplace makes it imperative<br />

for Humber to become a learning community that learners choose throughout their lives.<br />

Their decision will be based on Humber’s competence and reputation for best meeting<br />

the needs <strong>of</strong> learners and clients. Humber will be known for its learning-first approach<br />

and the quality <strong>of</strong> its programs and services.<br />

2.0 Learner Centered – Cultivate an organizational culture in which policies, programs,<br />

practices and personnel place learning as the top priority.<br />

Over the last few years, Humber has taken action to increase the level <strong>of</strong> learner and<br />

learning-centered activities, thereby enhancing learner success, improving institutional<br />

effectiveness, reinforcing values and behaviours consistent with a lifelong learning<br />

culture and ensuring a commitment to staff development and recruitment. This journey is<br />

ongoing and fundamental to our future success.<br />

3.0 Enabling Employees – Enhance the skill levels <strong>of</strong> Humber employees to reach their<br />

personal potential and meet the changing learning and service needs <strong>of</strong> Humber’s<br />

students and clients.<br />
