Shaping the Future of Tech Education

For over a decade, we've been transforming careers and building the tech workforce of tomorrow.

Our Story

From Startup to Industry Leader

Canada Tech School was founded in 2014 by three software engineers who saw a gap between traditional education and what the tech industry actually needed. They left their positions at major tech companies to create a new kind of school—one that would prepare students for real-world challenges from day one.

Starting with just 12 students in a small Toronto office, we've grown to become one of Canada's leading tech education providers. Today, we've trained over 3,500 graduates who work at companies ranging from startups to Fortune 500 enterprises.

Our success comes from a simple philosophy: teach what matters, taught by people who do it professionally. Every curriculum update is informed by our advisory board of 50+ CTOs and hiring managers. Every instructor has at least 10 years of industry experience. Every student receives personalized career support.
