As a company we are committed to uplifting indigenous voices, respecting traditional lands, raising awareness, and working in collaboration with Indigenous partners in the spirit of reconciliation. We acknowledge that our campus is located in Winnipeg on Treaty 1 territory, the traditional lands and waters of Anishinaabe [AH - NISH - AH - NAH - BAY], Ininiwak, Anishininiwak, Dakota, and Dene (DEN-EH) peoples, and the National Homeland of the Red River Métis. We acknowledge that our water is sourced from Shoal Lake 40 First Nation located on Treaty 3.

Having a deep understanding of the demands of the modern workforce is integral to what we offer our learners. That is why internally, we place such value on building a work culture that is flexible and adaptive to the changing world of work. Our 4 day work week gives our team members a #MeDay each week to invest in themselves. We also seek out diversity in our team. We #CelebrateEverything and encourage team members to take paid time off to celebrate their cultural, religious, and spiritual holidays. Our team is intentionally talent-dense - our strength lies in the differences in backgrounds and expertise that we each bring to the table.

Ours is a fast-paced environment where we continually challenge ourselves to think outside of the box. We want our team to feel welcomed, energized, and engaged while having fun. If this sounds like the right fit for you - we invite you to come join us
