GFT Canada quickly became interested in the 42 Québec training project, initially for its innovative pedagogical approach. Indeed, we were delighted with the proposal of a different path from the traditional student curriculum. The fact that the training is entirely focused on information technology (IT) was an additional motivational argument since we have worked in this field for ten years.

This has been a reality for several years now, but Québec has a crying need for qualified workers in the IT sector. 42 Québec is the perfect answer to this demand and contributes to increasing the pool of professionals, which will benefit all companies working in the field.

GFT Canada is an IT consulting firm specializing in the insurance industry. Our collaboration with 42 Québec offers us an opportunity to help people discover the wonderful world of consulting, a rapidly changing world, and constant learning and challenges.
