The Human Rights and Equity Office Learning Challenge 2022 has been extended until the end of 2022. Students, staff, and faculty can participate in the challenge, which is focused on courses covering equity, inclusion, sexual and gender diversity, human rights, accessibility, and sexual violence.

Those who participate and complete courses specific to their position (student, staff or faculty) by Dec. 31, 2022 will earn a certificate acknowledging completion of the courses.
