About Kumaran Nadesan
Kumaran Nadesan is an education consultant. As Co-Founder and Deputy Chairman of 369 Global, a group of companies that includes business interests in skills training and workforce development. One such company is Computek College. This college is one of Canada’s leading career colleges with three campuses in Ontario. These schools help international students and immigrants with the tools and skills set they need for employment in the healthcare, business and technology sectors. Computek has a proven track record to help people get the skills they need to succeed.
In addition, Kumaran advocates for policy changes that allow for workforce mobility so employers can fill the labour shortages with employees who have the necessary skills without residential/provincial labour mobility restrictions.
Given Kumaran’s experience working for the Government of Ontario for 15 years, including in workforce development and intergovernmental affairs, he brings a unique skill set on the intersection of education and government policy.
Kumaran’s leadership has been recognized by his peers and those in the broader community. In June 2025, he was named, Inspiration Leader of the Year at the Canadian SME Small Business Magazine’s National Business Award.
Kumaran and Computek College help students, newcomers, and those looking to upskill, navigate Canada’s education system so they are set up to successfully enter the employment sector.
Computek College offers programs in healthcare, business and technology designed with the needs of the future workforce in mind. The goal is to ensure graduates are ready to succeed in Canada’s competitive labour market and that governments are aware of the programs provided to help fill those labour shortages.
I believe it’s time to challenge conventional notions on policies including education, development, immigration and expansion and to advocate a new approach for Canada on the world stage.
The woods are lovely, dark, and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
And miles to go before I sleep.
