Program details
Overview
Soins infirmiers (180.A0) is a technical Diploma of College Studies (DEC) at Cégep de Sept-Îles that prepares students for direct nursing practice, with a DEC-BAC option for continuing to a university nursing degree. The three-year program covers health assessment and individualized clinical care across medicine, surgery, pediatrics, maternity, care of older adults, palliative care, and psychiatry. Training combines classroom instruction with laboratory work using a simulated patient mannequin and a mock care unit, and includes 125 days of supervised clinical placements, with students grouped roughly six to an instructor during practicum rotations. The college works with the regional integrated health and social services authority (CISSS) on employment and externship opportunities after the first two years of study. The program suits students who want to work directly with patients, who have good manual dexterity, sound organizational skills, and developing clinical judgment, and who are interested in settings ranging from acute hospital care to family medicine and long-term care. It is designed for direct entry into nursing practice, with the option to pursue further study afterward.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Cegep de Sept-Iles admits applicants to Soins infirmiers (Nursing) on the Diplome d'etudes secondaires (DES), which under the college's general admission conditions requires the language of instruction (French) at Secondary 5, a second language (English) at Secondary 5, mathematics and science at Secondary 4, and history and citizenship education at Secondary 4. The program specifically requires Secondary 4 Science et technologie de l'environnement or Science et environnement, and Secondary 5 Chimie, though the college offers a remedial chemistry pathway for applicants who have not completed that course. No English-language test score is published, as instruction is in French. Because clinical placements are part of the program, some practicum sites require a specific vaccination profile and a criminal record check, and students must sign a confidentiality agreement; incomplete vaccination can bar access to a placement or removal from a clinical setting during an outbreak.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants apply through SRACQ (Service régional d'admission au collégial de Québec) for programmes starting in 2027: the Fall 2027 intake has a first-round deadline of 1 March 2027, with further rounds on 1 May, 1 June and 1 August 2027 filling remaining seats; the Winter 2027 intake closes its first round on 1 November 2026, then 1 December 2026 and 2 January 2027. International applicants outside France apply through SRACQ from 1 September 2026 and must complete their file by 1 February 2027 for Fall 2027 entry, after which no international candidate can be admitted; Winter entry is offered only to French citizens, who may apply until 1 May 2027 for Fall or between 15 May and 15 October 2027 for Winter 2028. Admission is not indefinitely rolling: each round carries a firm cut-off, though later rounds absorb whatever seats remain. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
