Our History
Career City College was founded in 2014 with a mission to champion career success through accessible and up-to-date skills development. From the beginning, we aimed to pioneer online learning by offering a dynamic online experience, initially targeting remote, underserved municipalities in BC. Over time, our reach expanded to serve the general Canadian population.
Recognizing the need to modernize program delivery, our founder Jag Basran, with his background in software engineering and business management, sought to leverage new technologies and innovations to bring career training into the 21st century.
Significant milestones in our journey include achieving PTIB and EQA designation, which recognize the quality of our training services and allow us to support our communities further. Additionally, our early adoption and optimization of online training methods positioned us as leaders in this space well before the COVID-19 pandemic.
