This Attestation of College Studies (AEC) program covers the full accounting cycle, preparing students for entry-level roles in accounting, finance, and business administration. Delivered full-time over 14 months (1,350 hours), the program includes a 240-hour work placement in a business setting. Coursework spans bookkeeping, payroll, accounts payable and receivable, credit and collections, and administrative support functions. Graduates are prepared for positions such as accounting clerk, administrative technician, payroll clerk, credit clerk, and accounts-payable or accounts-receivable clerk, among other office and finance support roles. The program combines classroom instruction with applied, workplace-based learning through its internship component, giving students practical exposure to accounting and administrative operations before graduation. It leads to an Attestation of College Studies (AEC), a credential recognized by Quebec employers for entry-level accounting and business-administration positions, and builds on a general education foundation combined with program-specific technical coursework in accounting software and procedures.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Admission requires a Quebec Secondary School Diploma (DES), a Diploma of Vocational Studies (DEP), or training judged sufficient by the college, combined with at least one of the following: an interruption of full-time studies of at least two consecutive semesters or one school year; enrolment under an agreement between the college and an employer or a government program; an interruption of one semester of full-time study followed by one semester of full-time postsecondary study; or holding a DEP. Applicants whose only credential is a DES, DEP, or equivalent may also qualify if the program provides technical training unavailable through a Diploma of College Studies (DEC) pathway, or if it is covered by an agreement between the Quebec ministry and a government department or agency. Eligible applicant categories are Canadian citizens, permanent residents, and international students holding a valid Quebec Acceptance Certificate (CAQ) and a college-level study permit. Applicants must also have completed Mathematics 436 (or TS4e, SN4e, CST5e, or an equivalent course).
