(The description of the innovation should include any conditions necessary for replication.) yy Timeliness—The innovation must have been in existence long enough to have been tested. yy Value Addition—There is evidence that the innovation adds value to, or improves, student education. yy Currency—There is evidence that the innovation is current in content and adaptive to technological application as appropriate.

LEAGUE FOR INNOVATION IN THE COMMUNITY COLLEGE AWARD
HumberOnline.Solutions
Hanadi Alnawab, Faculty of Business
HumberOnline.Solutions connects multidisciplinary teams of Humber students and faculty with small businesses in Ontario to develop digital solutions to support their online needs. With the support of Humber’s Applied Research and Innovation, Hanadi Alnawab took the lead and successfully applied for funding from the Ontario Centres of Excellence. The program engages students and professors from across Humber: the Faculty of Business, the Faculty of Media and Creative Arts and the Faculty of Liberal Arts & Sciences and Innovative Learning are all involved. Teams of Humber students work collaboratively on solving real business problems by working directly with a business owner. The program offers services ranging from website development, graphic design and brand development through to professional writing and communications. By also providing training for longterm sustainability and maintenance of the website, the program creates a truly unique and valuable opportunity for small businesses. These hands-on industry experiences are key for students, but they also foster economic growth in Ontario by providing small businesses with sustainable digital solutions.

INNOVATION OF THE YEAR
Implementation of Cyberbahn Platform and Fast Company Software for Corporate Law Procedure course
Farah Jamal Karmali, Faculty of Business
Farah Jamal Karmali, partnered with two industry leaders to provide law clerk students with cutting-edge “hands on� experiential learning. For the Corporate Procedures Law Clerk class, Karmali collaborated with Cyberbahn to give students mock access to the ONBIS database and the ability to incorporate companies or perform other law clerk functions as if they were on the job. Karmali also worked with industry leader Do Process to provide Humber students with free access to Fast Company, the dominant corporate database and document production software in the legal market. Students can now create minute books using this software, just as they would on the job. These innovations provide greatly enhanced, 21st-century learning experiences for Humber law clerk students, and give them a distinct advantage in the marketplace.
