Program details
Overview
Techniques de travail social (388.A1) is a technical Diploma of Collegial Studies (DEC) at Cégep de Trois-Rivières that trains students to become social work technicians. According to the program page, graduates intervene with individuals, families, groups, or communities facing a range of social problems, such as poverty, violence, isolation, difficulties with adaptation, and substance dependence. Coursework and fieldwork involve developing, carrying out, and evaluating intervention plans aimed at restoring or building a balance between an individual and their environment. Students study human development and the factors underlying different social problems, and they become familiar with social legislation and human rights. The page notes the possibility of completing an internship abroad and describes a wide variety of workplaces and client groups available to graduates depending on their interests. By the end of the program, students are expected to have mastered an intervention process that allows them to work effectively with diverse client groups. It suits students interested in social intervention and community support who want a technical credential combining coursework on social issues and legislation with fieldwork placements, including an international internship option.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: The programme page for Techniques de travail social (388.A1) states only that applicants must meet Cégep de Trois-Rivières' general college admission conditions, without listing programme-specific secondary-school courses. Those general conditions require a DES from the youth or adult sector, or a DEP with the secondary 5 language of instruction, secondary 5 second language, and secondary 4 mathematics courses completed; the language requirement is met through these DES-embedded courses, and no separate IELTS or TOEFL score is published. Enrolment is limited ('places limitées'), and the college reserves places for Indigenous applicants who meet the established admission criteria and confirm Indigenous legal status on their application, and for adult applicants with relevant experience who meet the same established criteria. Applications go through the SRAM network (admission.sram.qc.ca). No interview, portfolio, or minimum-average requirement is stated on the programme page.
