TORONTO, ON, CANADA, October 17, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Utimus, a military veteran-led organization focused on expanding employment opportunities for new Canadians, and EdTek Services, a provider of LMS for small business and mission-critical LMS Support Services, have made a significant and forward-looking commitment by directly supporting newly arrived Canadians, who often face significant challenges when seeking meaningful and lasting employment.
"Supporting new Canadians is an investment in all our futures," says Paul Jacobelli, Founder of EdTek. “We know it brings talent and diversity, driving innovation and growth, benefiting our nation as a whole."
