Cégep de Trois-Rivières

What Cégep de Trois-Rivières does

Cégep de Trois-Rivières is a public general and vocational college (cégep) established in 1968 and operating under Quebec's public college network, with its main campus at 3500 rue De Courval, Trois-Rivières, Canada. The institution delivers pre-university and technical diploma programs (DEC), continuing education (AEC), customized corporate training, and student support services to the Mauricie region. It runs an extensive athletic program (Les Diablos) with nearly 20 teams across 11 disciplines, student residences, and an Indigenous student support pathway, and in 2026 recognized 57 Indigenous graduates through a regional ceremony.

The college operates three wholly-owned technology transfer centers — C2T3, Innofibre, and CMQ — that link academic programs to regional industry in fibers, cellulose, bioresources, and broader applied research. It has developed proprietary pedagogical assets including the trademarked MIROIR® mentorship program (launched 2010), which has been transferred to UQTR (2013) and Centre de service scolaire de l'Énergie (2014), and the VIE3 reflective teaching platform. The Fondation du Cégep de Trois-Rivières is a wholly-owned nonprofit that has executed over 400 projects and disburses more than $45,000 in annual scholarships.

Revenue is primarily driven by Quebec Ministry of Higher Education operating grants, supplemented by tuition and student fees, continuing education services to regional businesses (Formation Mauricie), foundation donations, and ancillary services such as parking (1,100 spaces across three lots, $70-$210 annual permits). The go-to-market motion is event-driven, built around annual enrollment cycles, open houses, sports recruitment, and high-school partnerships. The college expanded its full ownership of the Novocis building on 2026-06-30 to scale continuing education and business services.
