Study Wherever and Whenever You Like

At Cégep@distance, there is a continuous intake of students. Since each student's courses are self-contained, you can begin your courses when you want, at any time of the year.

You decide whether you want to finish the required assignments and exams as quickly as possible or to take full advantage of the six months allotted for the completion of each course.
