Before transitioning to the workplace, you’ll build the technical and professional skills needed to succeed through hands-on courses, industry projects, career preparation and employer connections with organizations such as Shopify, IBM, EY and RBC. Once you begin your employment, you’ll continue your degree while earning a full-time salary, supported by ongoing career coaching as you apply what you learn on the job. Graduate with years of paid industry experience, a professional network, a portfolio of real-world projects and the skills employers need in an AI-driven world.
