Calling All PHEcs!

What does the Professional Home Economist (PHEc) designation mean to you?

As graduation season approaches for many university students, OHEA is looking for our PHEc's input! We will be running a New Graduates/How to Become a PHEc series in June to encourage students to pursue the designation, as well as reduce confusion around the process of applying. 

A few years ago, multiple individuals were featured on the website regarding what the designation meant to them. We want to refresh this and update the information. We are looking for OHEA members to email what the PHEc designation means to them as an individual, professional, educator, etc. This holds especially true to those that were featured or have been interviewed on the blog...has your response changed or evolved over the last few years?

Some of the best conversations happen around the table. There’s something truly special about sharing food together and slowing down to enjoy one another’s company. Brunch is the perfect excuse to get together over food and weekends are simply made for slowing down. Therefore, brunching and weekends are the perfect combo!
Brunch menus seem to vary greatly, so this month, we’ve been asking our #CanolaConnect community:

At our AGM on March 23rd 2018 at Brescia University College, Michele McAdoo
pounded the gavel one last time. It marked her last day as Chair of the OHEA Board and an eleven year span of serving on the OHEA Executive and Board.

In Michele's honour, we asked OHEA members to send us messages about Michele, along with photos that we have put together in a booklet. Cindy Hartman gave Michele the book in April, and we are happy to share it with you all today!

Grab a Coffee and Go - Harmless, Right?

​

Recycling is not a new idea – in fact, Canadians are getting better at it, recycling 255 kilograms of garbage per person that would have ended up in landfills (1). However, there is some misunderstanding about what exactly is recyclable. In 2017, 52,000 tonnes of waste were mistakenly recycled (2). A major contributor to this confusion are disposable paper cups.
