Infostrux Community

They say it takes a village to raise a child. Similarly, it takes an entire community to grow a company that we are proud to be part of - a wonderfully diverse community of leaders, employees, partners, clients, interns, students, speakers, mentors, and everyone else who gets involved with Infostrux in one way or another. Here's a chance to get to know our incredible community a bit better.

Bipoc Program: Nurturing An Incredibly Diverse Future Talent Pool

We are committed to growing and supporting a diverse community of talented professionals. As part of that commitment, Infostrux has developed a mentorship program for post-secondary students residing permanently in Canada who identify as Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour.

Our program offers a hands-on learning experience in data science, engineering, and computer science. It includes Snowflake courses, prep materials, and vouchers to take the SnowPro Core certification exam, all covered by Infostrux. In addition, students have the opportunity to shadow our engineering team and collaborate with data professionals through a hands-on unpaid internship. This 3-month program with a flexible schedule allows students to gain practical experience while studying.
