Overview

Independent since 1970, when it separated from Collège Lionel-Groulx, the college now teaches roughly 8,700 students across its regular division, continuing-education arm, and corporate training services, supported by more than 900 employees. Study takes place at the main Saint-Jérôme campus and at two regional centres, the Centre collégial de Mont-Laurier (opened 1983) and the Centre collégial de Mont-Tremblant (opened 2008).
