Supporting Students During Uncertain Times
Career Year Academy is a skills-based education provider serving the Canadian and French markets. They aim to bridge the gap between high school, university, and the workplace. Launched in 2018, CYA has been hosting with amazee.io from the beginning. Working with amazee.io was easy for their technical leadership, who had prior experience with us when we started. CYA had evaluated other hosting providers but ultimately chose amazee.io for our ability to handle their DevOps needs, which allowed them to focus on building and maintaining their product.
“From the beginning, I just felt like I was at home working with amazee.io. It’s been great to see the team grow, while still feeling as valued and supported as ever.”
Patrick Delorme, Chief Information Officer at Career Year Academy
When COVID-19 disrupted and shut down most in-person scholastic activities worldwide, CYA wanted to double down on its commitment to helping students. With the cancellation of in-person university expos, CYA recognized a new unmet need: connecting high school students with higher education institutions. Thus, CYA decided to expand its offerings by building a pro-bono digital platform that would bring the college expo experience online.
To do our part, amazee.io also offered free web hosting to organizations pursuing initiatives to help with COVID-19 relief efforts. When CYA reached out to see if we would support them by hosting the project for free, we immediately agreed.
“The amazee.io support team is always there to provide guidance and make sure we’re prepared for a big influx of users over a short period of time. I have constant peace of mind knowing they’re there.”
