Development of a Quantum Software Engineering Bootcamp

The Quantum Algorithms Institute (QAI) brings together industry, academia, and the government of British Columbia and launches the first Quantum Software engineering bootcamp. The goal is strengthening and growing the quantum computing ecosystem in British Columbia and Canada.
A major pain point for quantum computing startups is to onboard new researchers and train them on software engineering best practices in order to deliver enterprise class software. On the other hand, lack of short certificate in applied quantum software engineering is making difficult for students in the field or career switchers to build certified quantum related projects portfolios.
This bootcamp will allow these startups to offload their R&D teams and focus on scalable enterprise class software deliveries and will give advantage to students part of the local BC ecosystem when competing for quantum computing related jobs.
