Why should you upskill for a career in tech?

Rapid digitization means the demand for tech roles is far greater than the candidates available in the market.

Using innovative skills mapping and aptitude assessments, we identify individuals with the propensity to excel in tech roles and train them to be proficient and job ready.

Entry-level roles on offer range from (USD) $45K - $56K

35% of new jobs require high-level digital skills.

55% of the jobs are middle-skill positions, which require training beyond high school but not a college degree.

70% of organizations are currently working on digital transformation - and they don't have the talent they need to fill these roles.

13% of open jobs don’t require any digital skills, which means 87% of jobs do require digital skills.

CARLA CYR
From stay-at-home mom to Systems Administrator
My first contact with WithYouWithMe was instrumental in helping me find my way forward through the Service Desk career pathway and was able to match my strengths and weaknesses to a job and a team that she knew I would succeed with. I now have a career, a direction in life and work for a company that not only understands me, but also accepts me for who I am, flaws and all.

JARI JEWITT
From Kindergarten Teacher to Data Analyst
After about 9 years I was losing my connection to teaching and I was looking for a change when a good friend of mine mentioned the company WithYouWithMe.

I had always longed for a job I was passionate about but didn’t know how I could possibly change careers and certainly didn’t think I could break into a lucrative tech career. When I started the WithYouWithMe program, that all changed. I completed free online training and very quickly received a call about a role. I interviewed and landed my first job in tech, working as a Data Analyst in the federal Government. That was almost two years ago – and I’ve never been more motivated or fulfilled. I’m really passionate about sharing this experience with people.

ISIBEAL RYANS
From Security Officer to Project Manager for the Canadian Federal Government
WithYouWithMe’s training courses were easy to follow along with and each module built upon the previous one in a way that was easy to understand with practical tests and exercises. Since securing a role in tech, my new career allows me to challenge myself and continue to grow in a leadership role while continuing to learn about the IT sector. It has provided a more secure and stable future for my family which may not have been possible with the costs and time required to return to school and retrain for a new career.

VICKI MATHESON
From Administrative Assistant to Service Desk Analyst
Starting a brand-new career was extremely out of my comfort zone but logging into WithYouWithMe for the first time was easily one of the best decisions I could have made for my family and me. My first contact with the company was able to guide me with getting started on courses that might spark my interest. After completing one of the pathways she recommended, I also tried some other courses to help me gain more knowledge in different areas and put me in a strong position me for upcoming jobs. During the entire process with them I felt respected and very supported if I had any questions during their check-ins.
