QCanada is the Canadian chapter of QWorld, a global network dedicated to expanding education, research, and community-building in quantum technologies. Our mission is to make quantum computing and quantum information science accessible to learners across Canada while fostering collaboration with the worldwide QWorld community. 

QCanada – Your Quantum Connection to the World 


QCanada is the Canadian chapter of QWorld, a global network dedicated to expanding education, research, and community-building in quantum technologies. Our mission is to make quantum computing and quantum information science accessible to learners across Canada while fostering collaboration with the worldwide QWorld community. 

We welcome students, researchers, educators, industry professionals, and enthusiasts who are curious about the rapidly evolving quantum landscape. Whether you are taking your first steps into quantum computing or seeking deeper engagement, QCanada offers opportunities to learn, connect, and grow. 

Our Mission 
QCanada aims to: 

  • Introduce quantum technologies – quantum computing, quantum programming, quantum algorithms, and related fields – to communities across Canada. 
  • Provide high – quality educational workshops following QWorld’s internationally recognized learning tracks (e.g., QBronze, QNickel, QSilver, specialized modules). 
  • Build a strong, inclusive Canadian quantum community that bridges academia, industry, and emerging talent. 
  • Promote collaborative learning and research, both locally and through global QWorld initiatives. 
  • Encourage diversity and accessibility, making quantum education available to all backgrounds and experience levels. 

What We Do


Educational Workshops 

QCanada organizes hands-on quantum programming workshops based on QWorld’s standardized curriculum. These include introductory coding modules, algorithmic exercises, and exploration of real quantum hardware through platforms like Qiskit. 

Seminars, Meetups & Community Events 

We host seminars, discussions, reading groups, and meetups connecting learners with experts from academia and industry. Our activities follow QWorld’s open, collaborative, and community-driven philosophy. 


Collaboration & Networking


Participants join a growing national network of quantum enthusiasts and gain access to QWorld’s global community spanning over 30 countries. This creates opportunities for joint projects, mentorship, and professional connections. 

Participation in Global Programs 

QCanada members may take part in large-scale QWorld activities such as: 

  • QBronze international workshop series 
  • QIntern (global internship/mentorship program) 
  • QResearch initiatives 
  • QCousins cross-country collaborations 

Our Vision for Canada


Canada is an emerging leader in quantum technologies, with vibrant research centers, thriving startups, and strong government support. QCanada aims to complement this ecosystem by: 

  • Expanding quantum literacy across all provinces 
  • Creating opportunities for students and beginners to enter the field 
  • Building cross-country bridges between universities, labs, industry, and hobbyist communities 
  • Increasing Canada’s representation within the global quantum education movement 

Join Us


QCanada is open to everyone — no prior experience in quantum computing is required. Whether you want to learn, teach, collaborate, organize events, or simply be part of a supportive community, there is a place for you here.
