Program details
Overview
Environnement, hygiène et sécurité au travail (DEC 260.B0) is a technical program at Cégep de Sorel-Tracy that trains technicians to protect worker health and safety and the environment across a wide range of workplaces. Training addresses workplace risk prevention and environmental protection practice, preparing graduates to intervene directly in industrial and other work settings. The college delivers part of the training through a workplace-learning model, apprentissage en milieu de travail, carried out with regional partner employers, and the program page notes an affiliation with the Centre de transfert technologique en écologie industrielle (CTTEI). Alongside the standard schedule, the college states that it is the only Quebec institution offering an accelerated pathway through this program for qualifying students. It suits students concerned with both workplace health and safety and broader environmental issues, who bring communication skills, versatility, teamwork, resourcefulness, attention to detail, observational skill, curiosity about science, and an analytical mindset. Graduates take on roles overseeing environmental compliance and occupational health and safety within manufacturing, industrial and other organizations, a field the college describes as having strong hiring demand for its graduates.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Domestic admission requires a Quebec DES or DEP with passes in Secondary V language of instruction, Secondary V second language, and Secondary IV mathematics, per Cégep de Sorel-Tracy's general college admission conditions. This programme also requires Secondary IV Science et technologie de l'environnement (or Science et environnement), or the equivalent, plus Secondary IV Mathématique Technico-Sciences, Secondary IV Sciences Naturelles, or Secondary V Culture, société et technique, or the equivalent. The accelerated two-year track is open only to applicants who have already completed their general college-level (formation générale) courses. Applications go through SRAM (admission.sram.qc.ca) as a regular candidate, with a non-refundable $30 fee. International applicants are admitted for the Fall session only and, unless they studied in French, in Quebec, in France, or at an accredited French lycée, must submit a French-proficiency test result — Bright Language, TCF tout public, DELF tout public (minimum level B2), DALF, or TEF — plus an $85 CAD SRAM application-analysis fee, by the 14 March deadline.
Application Details
Start Date:September and January
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants apply through SRAM (admission.sram.qc.ca): the college's page currently shows fall-intake rounds of 1 March, 22 April and 27 May 2026 (the cycle that has already started) and winter 2027 rounds of 1 November and 25 November 2026, with later applications assessed in successive rounds while seats remain; fall 2027 round dates were not yet published at the time of this check. International applicants apply through SRAM's international stream and must submit by 14 March for fall entry only, as the college does not offer winter intake to international students; SRAM does not publish a separate rolling window for these applicants beyond that fixed date. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
