Students in programs or occupations involving direct contact with vulnerable persons are required to undergo a Police Record Check.
Humber reserves the right to deny admission or withdraw a student from a program based on an unpardoned criminal record bearing relevance to the academic or field placement requirements of the program. It is important for potential and current students to understand that failure to meet the Police Record Check requirements may prevent their successful admission to, or completion of, the program.
Employers and agencies offering student placement opportunities will require a Police Record Check before accepting a student for field placement. Failure to meet the requirements for field placement will prevent students from completing the program and/or securing employment.
Instructions on how to apply for a Police Record Check will be provided before the start of classes or at the appropriate time during the program.
Depending on the duration of the program, students may be required to update their Police Record Check at specific times during the program.
Humber offers many co-op programs. These programs provide the student with an opportunity to obtain work experience related to their program of study.
The timing of work semesters (15-week semesters) varies by program; however, most occur after two (2) semesters of in-class study. Students may be required to meet specific academic criteria prior to obtaining a co-op placement.
The admission requirements for co-op programs vary. Please refer to the individual program listings for further details.
Prior to making a decision to suspend or phase out a program, Humber will provide the students enrolled in the program with the opportunity to complete the program within the normal time period (i.e. the Ministry-approved program duration).
As a general principle, Humber will provide the students with the opportunity to complete the program at the college in which they are enrolled. However, there may be special circumstances where it is not possible for Humber to do so, or where a transfer of the students to another college would be more practicable for both the students and Humber. Under such circumstances, Humber assumes the responsibility to assist the students to become enrolled in the same program offered by another college located within a reasonable distance from Humber.

Statistics Canada is the national statistical agency. As such, Statistics Canada carries out hundreds of surveys each year on a wide range of matters, including education.
It is essential to be able to follow students across time and institutions to understand, for example, the factors affecting enrolment demand at postsecondary institutions. The increased emphasis on accountability for public investment means that it is also important to understand outcomes. In order to carry out such studies, Statistics Canada asks all colleges and universities to provide data on students and graduates. Institutions collect and provide to Statistics Canada student identification information (student's name, student ID number, Social Insurance Number), student contact information (address and telephone number), student demographic characteristics, enrolment information, previous education, and labour force activity.
The federal Statistics Act provides the legal authority for Statistics Canada to obtain access to personal information held by educational institutions. The information may be used only for statistical purposes, and the confidentiality provisions of the Statistics Act prevent the information from being released in any way that would identify a student.
Students who do not wish to have their information used can request that Statistics Canada remove their identification and contact information from the national database.
Further information on the use of this information can be obtained from Statistics Canada's website at statcan.gc.ca or by writing to the Postsecondary Section, Centre for Education Statistics, 17th Floor, R.H. Coats Building, Tunney's Pasture, Ottawa, ON K1A 0T6.
