Job Outlook

Technology in BC offers a significant opportunity for well-paying jobs now, and into the future. In 2018, BC’s tech sector included more than 10,000 companies employing over 123,000 professionals. Tech is now BC’s fourth-largest economic sector. There are and will continue to be many opportunities in tech as the economy expands and employees retire. Although Indigenous Peoples represent less than 1% of BC’s tech professionals, many companies are actively recruiting professionals who identify as First Nations, Inuit, or Metis.

Testimonials

"Fabian has found a way to make coding easy for lack of a better word, which is really impressive considering we are learning a new language. Not only that the ability to expand on any thoughts that have popped up have been answered in minutes, if not seconds, which has made all the difference in pursuing this knowledge. The delivery of the course is hands down the best distance learning I have experienced to date."
