Program details
Overview
Archives médicales (411.A0) is a technical DEC at Collège Ahuntsic that trains medical archivists to play a role within the health system by ensuring the quality, security, and confidentiality of clinical information used in patient care, research, and decision-making. The page describes this expertise as essential to the functioning of health establishments and to improving services provided to the population. It states that students develop skills in clinical information management, medical terminology, legislation, and information technology, combining medical, administrative, and technological components of the work. Admission requires a secondary-level mathematics prerequisite. The program prepares graduates for roles handling patient health records and clinical data within hospitals, clinics, and other health and social-service establishments, where accuracy and confidentiality are central responsibilities. It suits students who are detail-oriented, comfortable working with structured information systems and regulatory requirements, and interested in a health-sector career that is administrative and technical rather than clinical, supporting the broader healthcare system from behind the scenes rather than through direct patient care.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: The program's own page sets one prerequisite: CST mathematics from Secondary 4 (or Mathematiques 514). Beyond this, admission follows the College's general regulation R-11: a Diplome d'etudes secondaires covering it, or an equivalent Diplome d'etudes professionnelles with the required upgrading courses, plus eligible citizenship or immigration status. Applicants whose Secondary 5 language of instruction was not French must pass the College's own French-language test. Admission is processed through SRAM, for the Fall session only, per the program page, and any further College-set condition referenced on its general costs-and-conditions page applies where stated.
Application Details
Start Date:September
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants apply through the Service régional d'admission du Montréal métropolitain (SRAM): Collège Ahuntsic's own site confirms it follows SRAM's standard three-round system for Fall entry and two-round system for Winter entry, which for the current cycle puts the Fall 2027 equal-consideration date at 1 March 2027 and the Winter 2027 equal-consideration date at 1 November 2026 (applications opening 15 September 2026), with later rounds in late April, late May and late November while seats remain. International applicants apply through the same SRAM portal; SRAM's system-wide window for Fall 2027 international entry runs from 15 March 2026 to a firm closing date of 14 March 2027, with no winter international date published for the college. Admission is rolling round to round until each round's seats are filled. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
