In a world increasingly dependent on technology, the shortage of IT personnel has become a major challenge for many companies. According to the <\/span>Journal de Montr\u00e9al (2023)<\/span><\/a>, there are currently only 0.4 unemployed people per vacancy in professional, scientific and technical services, a figure that speaks volumes about the growing demand for IT skills.
