employees to participate actively in developing their own learning plans and accessing
appropriate professional development to remain current and to prepare for future roles. It
also challenges the Humber community to provide all employees with the tools they need
to do the best job possible and to recognize and appreciate employees for their
contribution.
4.0 Market Responsiveness – Position Humber to anticipate, assess and respond to learning
needs to reflect changing workplace needs in select Canadian and global markets.
Humber must respond faster to shifts in traditional markets including the development of
new initiatives in select Canadian and global markets. To maintain its position as a leader
in education and training, strategic partnerships and alliances are essential to infuse new
ideas and promote growth. Humber must continue to align its strengths in program
delivery in conjunction with the marketplace. Programs and services need to keep pace
with the rapidly changing job market for full time students and to meet the continuous
learning needs of these students, part time learners, and our corporate clients. Each
employee carries the responsibility for being Humber’s “eyes and ears”. Research
practices and information systems need to be developed to track market intelligence that
employees gather. Employees and partners must keep market responsiveness in their
thinking, and all planning decisions must be based on a Humber-wide marketing plan.
5.0 Financial Sustainability – Create a financial environment that will support high quality
learning and service experiences.
Government funding cuts and caps have eroded our traditional revenue base. At the
same time, changes in learning modes present new costs and offer new revenue
opportunities. These factors affect the financial planning framework and necessitate the
evolution of financial processes at Humber, as well as the alignment of organization
policies to support new initiatives.
Humber Code of Ethics
Humber Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning has established principles and values
governing the conduct of all Humber employees which honour and promote the preservation
and protection of fundamental freedoms and human rights. Humber’s Code of Ethics stresses
the importance of fairness, honesty, professional integrity, respect, and trust, and the Code
spells out, in detail, what is expected of employees in relation to each of these principles.
The Code of Ethics forms an integral part of Humber’s quality assurance system in that it sets
out the principles, and some of the practices, against which performance is measured through
the Operational Review and Program Review Self-Assessment Reports.
The Code of Ethics outlines the principles and values that guide the conduct of all Humber
employees and honours the preservation and protection of fundamental human rights.
Underlying the code is a belief that each employee has the right to dignity and respect. By
supporting and abiding by this Code, the employees of Humber will demonstrate by their
behaviour that they have concern for the fundamental rights and freedoms of students, other
employees, and the community at large.
We support the following principles:
Fairness – In our relationships with others, we strive to be fair and just in our decisions and
actions. To provide fair and just treatment, we carefully weigh the circumstances and variables
