“PAECO is a phenomenal resource for young Ethiopian professionals in Ottawa. As a young professional myself, it is incredibly comforting to know that my community is ready, willing, and able to support me in achieving my hopes and dreams.”

“PAECO helps to expose Ethiopian born professionals to job opportunities. It helps to acquire new contacts, business leads and relationships. It is great for new graduates to tap into advice and expertise that they wouldn’t otherwise be able to get hold of. It is a great place to surround yourself with positive, uplifting people that help you to grow and thrive in your career field.”

“PAECO is such a great organization and very resourceful to young Ethiopian professionals in Ottawa who are looking to network, meet other young professions, receive mentoring and even participate in scholarship applications. I enjoy it because It allows me to be a part of a group that I can associate with and connect with and relate to academically. It is great for others like me in our community (in Ottawa) to be connected and help each other grow in and towards our potential careers.”
