The Edmonton Hispanic Bilingual Association is a community of students and instructors engaged in learning, teaching, and other cultural activities. All members of this community are expected to conduct themselves in a manner that contributes positively to an environment in which respect, civility, diversity, and inclusiveness are valued. EHBA is committed to assuring the success of the instructional program both at the individual and the community level.
