Program details
Overview
This AEC (attestation d'études collégiales) programme, described by the cégep as exclusive to Cégep Gérald-Godin, trains front-line municipal public-safety officers. Coursework covers municipal by-law enforcement, communication with citizens, emergency-situation intervention, crime prevention and offence sanctioning, foot and vehicle patrols, collaboration with police and emergency services, and conflict de-escalation. The programme runs 9 months in hybrid format and is open to candidates with or without prior experience, provided they hold a valid driver's licence, meet a physical-fitness standard verified through a selection test, have no criminal record, and pass a motivation interview. It suits candidates comfortable following established procedures, enforcing rules, and working in high-pressure or unpredictable situations. Graduates take up public-sector roles enforcing municipal regulations, patrolling parks and public spaces, and controlling access at transit, airport, and government facilities across cities and municipalities.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Open to candidates holding a Diploma of Secondary Studies, or training judged sufficient by the cégep, who also meet one of the general AEC conditions (Diploma of Vocational Studies, an interruption of full-time studies, or coverage under a cégep-employer agreement or government programme). Particular conditions require a valid driver's licence, a physical-fitness standard verified by a selection test, no criminal record, and a passing result in a motivation interview. Selection requires demonstrated sufficient mastery of French during an evaluation interview, and candidates may also be required to pass a written French-language test.
