Humber was once again honoured for outstanding achievements by Colleges and Institutes Canada (CICan).
Ray Chateau, director of Athletics and Recreation at Humber, has been selected as the Gold recipient for CICan's 2023 Leadership Excellence Award for Managerial Staff.
Ray's Gold award for Leadership Excellence for Managerial Staff highlights many of his accomplishments over his longstanding career at Humber, where he has:
- Led the Humber Hawks and earned 15 Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA) Academic All-Canadian titles in 2021-22 and the CCAA Academic All-Canadian Recognition Award for the second consecutive year.
- Guided the CCAA's landmark decision to revise the language in their operating code to allow student-athletes to compete on the sports team that corresponds with their sex assigned at birth or their gender identity.
- Spearheaded the Humber High-Performance Centre's transition to an online format during the pandemic so student-athletes could continue to train.
Ray's remarkable achievements at Humber and beyond will be honoured at this year's World Congress, held in Montreal on Monday, April 24, 2023. Ray will also be recognized on CICan's website through a press release and various social media posts.
The CICan Awards are handed out annually and recognize best practices from institutions across the country and individual leadership and achievements. Since 2015, Humber has won nine CICan Awards of Excellence, including four Gold, one Silver, and four Bronze awards.
