This certificate programme provides a general introduction to Quebec law for students without prior legal training. Over 30 credits, students learn to master basic legal concepts, identify and use legal sources and documentation, and develop the juridical reasoning needed to analyse everyday legal situations within the Quebec legal system. The curriculum familiarizes students with the workings of Quebec's courts and legal institutions and builds foundational skills applicable to further study or work involving legal questions. The programme is offered full-time or part-time on the Gatineau campus and leads to a first-cycle Certificate in General Law. Admission is possible with a college diploma (DEC) meeting a minimum R-score, with prior university credits and a stated minimum average, or on the basis of relevant experience with a CV and motivation letter. Intake occurs in the Fall, Winter, and Summer terms.
