94.3% of employers reported being very satisfied with Humber graduates.
This is what employers and industry are saying about Humber students.
Scott Snowden: We're a ten person company and right now 40% of our staff
have come through Humber. We really like the Web Development certificate course
that we're here to see tonight because it gives the students an applied understanding
of programming and of web development technologies and this gives them that skill
hit the ground running when they come in and start working for us.
Michelle Mawby: I love working with the Humber students because they're bringing new
and fresh ideas to the table. They're pushing us to actually be more creative and
getting us out of our set ways so it's really fun to work with the students.
Mark Saunders: The law enforcement has a large range of people that has strong interest in it.
And this is one of the institutes that churns out some of the better ones so I definitely
think that the people came here because they had an interest in this particular field
and there's no doubt that there'll be many of them that will take an active role in some
compartment within the field.
Jason Rosso: I think what's important with Humber, I've found of all the schools,
that I've traveled to and all the schools that I've taught in, Humber I find really really teaches
the fundamentals of cooking, like they leave sort of the fluff and the fancy stuff to the side
and they really focus more on giving you good foundational cooking skills.
Which is as a chef looking for young guys coming out, that's really all I need, I need them
to have a good basic understanding of French contemporary or French classical cooking technique
and when it applies to the restaurant we can train the rest out so I found that Humber
program really is focused on delivering practical cooking skills.
Andrew Horsman: I mean all the students came forward with a really great design.
Selecting the winners was very challenging. I know talking to some of the steering committee
folks, they had a really hard time between some of the designs. This one really evoked
the spirit of what the site is all about. Water management, sustainability and meeting
the three needs of the space: the ability to serve as a convening space,
a meeting space, a play space for when kids are racing around and space for commerce.
They bring five ton trucks up into this space and it needed to be able to accommodate
that kind of traffic and I think they've met that design really well.
Karen Gibbs: I've always done some form of education for junior law clerks.
Natalia is very bright. She has come from a well-rounded program.
Because I have seen students from other colleges where I'm almost retraining
them when it comes to the documents that come across our desk.
Alfred Spencer: Through their education, they're actually learning to think
outside that box. So you take an education at a school like Humber and
say it's not the traditional way of doing things, we want you to stretch your mind
in a way that looks at the world just a little bit different.
Ron Suter: Humber really has emerged as a preeminent training institution
for tomorrows creators and you know that's really exciting. I've been done here a couple of times
The passion in here, the enthusiasm of the students. It's a really exciting place.
Alexis Victor: The Humber students that come to us, they're ready. They inspire us,
they share new ideas with us. Here, you actually get to have the flexibility to
and the freedom to you know work on the projects that you really want to work on
and explore those opportunities.
Alessandro Spassiani: The students came for a walkthrough to the factory
wanted to experience what manufacturing is all about and then they asked if they could
come in and use our shop a little bit to see what could be done.
The design, the way they use the materials. I'm quite impressed, very impressed.
Rino Noto: I think the caliber of the work is amazing and also, I really like the
variety in terms of what they're doing. I like the fact that they're embracing some of
the old techniques along with the new.
Justin Creely: There's just a professionalism that comes from the students that
are entering the workforce for the first time. They're seasoned and it's the courses
and the preparation that they have here from the faculty at Humber.
I get a lot of calls from people looking to break into public relations and the first
thing I say to them is look up Humber, get into the Humber program and
then let's talk.
