Program details
Overview
Soins infirmiers is a three-year, full-time nursing technical DEC with fall and winter intakes, delivered at three sites according to the page: the main Salaberry-de-Valleyfield campus, the Centre d'études de Vaudreuil-Dorion, and the Centre intégré de formation at Hôpital Anna-Laberge in Châteauguay. In the Châteauguay cheminement, students complete their program-specific (nursing) courses at the Hôpital Anna-Laberge training centre while general-education and contributive courses are given at the Salaberry-de-Valleyfield campus, with schedules arranged to limit travel between sites. The program prepares students for roles in prevention, treatment, rehabilitation, and end-of-life care, with clinical placements (stages) every session across specialties such as surgery, pediatrics, and psychiatry. Training draws on the college's clinic-école and simulation centre, which use high-fidelity, programmable manikins. The page also notes a DEC-BAC arrangement with the Université de Sherbrooke exempting graduates from the first year of its nursing bachelor's degree, community-outreach activities, and the possibility of an international clinical placement in the final year. It suits students seeking a clinically-intensive nursing DEC through the Châteauguay-based training route.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Conditions: DES, plus Chimie de 5e secondaire (possibilité de suivre la chimie comme cours complémentaire au Cégep) OU Sciences physiques STE 4e ou SE 4e ou 436. Admission aux sessions d'automne et d'hiver. À l'hiver 2026, les admissions seront fermées pour le CHAL et pour Vaudreuil-Dorion, mais ouvertes pour le campus principal de Valleyfield: ce cheminement partagé n'accepte donc pas de nouveaux étudiants à l'hiver 2026 au CHAL ni à Vaudreuil-Dorion. Aucune note minimale, entrevue ou portfolio n'est exigée.
Application Details
Start Date:Automne et hiver (campus de Valleyfield seulement à l'hiver 2026; CHAL et Vaudreuil-Dorion fermés à l'hiver 2026)
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants apply through SRAM: the college's most recently published Fall cycle (Fall 2026) opened 13 January 2026 with a first-round deadline of 1 March 2026, 23:59, and the same 1 March pattern is expected to recur for Fall 2027; Winter 2027 entry opens mid-September 2026 with a first-round deadline of 1 November 2026, 23:59. Valleyfield publishes no fixed international application dates: for the 2026-2027 and 2027-2028 cycles it accepts only international applicants already living in Quebec who completed part of their secondary or vocational studies there, so the general SRAM international calendar does not apply. Admission for domestic applicants is not rolling beyond SRAM's rounds. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
