Welcome and thanks for visiting! My name is Hanadi Alnawab, Professor and Program Coordinator of the Digital Business Management degree program at The Faculty of Business, Humber College. I have been teaching full-time at The Faculty of Business since 2006, and coordinating the Digital Business Management program since 2015.
I am passionate about relationship-rich classrooms and experiential learning, and I incorporate both concepts into the design of my classes. Outside of work, I enjoy travelling, baking, and spending quality time with my son and husband.
Below are some highlights of my professional life, connect with me on Twitter and LinkedIn!
