Transition to Work
Transition to Work for People with Disabilities
The Transition to Work Program for people with disabilities aims to:
- promote self-advocacy
- provide opportunities to develop career readiness and exploratory skills
- offer career preparedness workshops and events
- offer tips for disclosing and negotiating accommodation needs in the workplace
- offer regular wraparound supports as part of learner's career readiness journey
- share examples of successful workplace accommodations and supportive employers
We focus our events around three key times in the school year:
- October is Disability Employment Awareness Month
- March is Career Month at Humber, a time when we discuss career preparation
- May is when we share information and advice to support you with the transition from college to the workplace
Please check out our resource page for more information, partnering organizations, and career development resources to support you through your career journey.
Funding for the Transition to Work Program is provided by CIBC.
The Transition to Work Program aims to enhance successful career outcomes and strategies for persons with disabilities through hosting workshops and events, and connecting learners with college support staff, employers, alumni and community agencies.
