Humber's Pod classrooms are now the prototype for a new type of classroom, trading rows of traditional desks for small tables and colourful, movable chairs grouped into “pods” around the room. Each pod is clustered around a large display screen and a whiteboard, allowing students to easily work in small groups. A smart board at the front of the room enables professors to give instructions, show videos or answer questions from the class. Plus, there are more than 20 outlets – most of them embedded in the tables.
Upon completion of the program, graduates may find employment in public law enforcement such as municipal, provincial or federal police and regulatory agencies, border services, transit services, or correctional services. Graduates may wish to work as a civilian employee of a police service, a uniformed police officer as a scenes-of-crime officer, or in specialized units such as forensic identification or criminal investigations. They may also find employment in private policing as a corporate or insurance investigator.
