La Fédération des établissements d’enseignement privés

What La Fédération des établissements d’enseignement privés does

La Fédération des établissements d'enseignement privés (FEEP) is a non-profit federation (OBNL) headquartered in Montréal that represents and serves 210 autonomous private schools across all regions of Quebec. The federation operates a membership-based GTM model, providing schools with shared services spanning professional development, pedagogical resources, insurance, digital support, innovation funding, advocacy, and a centralized job board. Target users include school administrators, educators, parents, and job seekers.

FEEP's core technology and service portfolio includes: the ATOUT web platform (atoutfeep.com) for administrative and pedagogical tools; the RÉCIT de l'enseignement privé team providing pedagonumeric training; adap360, a 360-degree adaptation service for students with special needs; the Boîte à outils, a curated content library organized by sector; the Fonds d'aide numérique supporting digital adoption; and the FONDS D'AIDE Tremplin pour l'innovation funding innovative projects. The federation also publishes a pedagogical journal and runs the annual Prix de l'Innovation en éducation (since 2017, 9th edition held in 2026) and the Prix Mérites de l'engagement scolaire.

FEEP's business model generates revenue through three primary streams: recurring membership dues from 210 member schools, professional development and training fees (including HEC Montréal and CADRE21 partnerships), and managed insurance services via the group insurance program with La Personnelle. Additional revenue is derived from digital and innovation grants administration. The federation holds a recognized representational role before the Quebec Ministry of Education, handling policy advocacy and memoranda on behalf of member schools. Distribution to families is facilitated through the public-facing ecoles-privees-quebec.ca portal, which functions as the primary search gateway for prospective parents.

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights3 records

Broad incumbents

• Council of International Schools (CIS): Global membership organization for schools and higher-education institutions offering accreditation, professional development, and international-student services. Overlaps with FEEP's international-student and member-service missions but at global scale.
• National Catholic Educational Association (NCEA): US-based association supporting Catholic schools with advocacy, professional development, and resources. Comparable federation/member-services structure to FEEP but denominational and US-focused.
• National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS): The largest US association of independent pre-K-12 schools, providing accreditation, advocacy, training, and convening services to ~1,700 member schools. Analogous to FEEP but at vastly larger scale and US-only scope.

Direct peers

• Canadian Association of Independent Schools (CAIS): National Canadian association of independent schools offering accreditation, professional development, and shared services — the closest direct peer to FEEP at the pan-Canadian level, though FEEP is Quebec-focused while CAIS is national.

Regional players

• Fédération des cégeps: Quebec federation representing the public CEGEP network. Operates as a federation/advocacy body for Quebec educational institutions and shares FEEP's member-driven convening model, though focused on post-secondary public colleges.
• Independent Schools Association of British Columbia (ISABC): Provincial-level association of independent schools in British Columbia offering accreditation, advocacy, and PD to member schools. Comparable structure to FEEP but operating in a different Canadian province.

Others

• European Council of International Schools (ECIS): International educational association supporting schools globally with PD, accreditation, and conferences. Shares FEEP's convening and capacity-building role for member schools but at international scope rather than provincial.
