The Centre de formation professionnelle de la Baie-James has been active in the James Bay territory since 1998.

Since its very beginning, the Centre de formation professionnelle has been delivering a variety of programs of study in several fields, such as mining, forestry, construction, mechanics, health and administration.

Specifically in entrepreneurship, the Centre is offering several training opportunities for starting, managing, operating and developing a business.

Also, to enhance the skills of entrepreneurs and their staff, a few customized or advanced training programs are made available by the Service aux entreprises et aux individus de la Baie-James according to the schedule and the content established with the client(s) during an assessment meeting with our professionals.

The Sabtuan Adult Education Services (SAES) is a division of the Cree School Board. SAES provides a wide range of high-quality, community-based, educational and training opportunities for adults living in the Eeyou Istchee territory.

Our goal is to promote and stimulate the social and professional integration of the adult population in our territory by offering programs and services that will increase their skills, expertise and qualifications.

By doing so, each of our students is ready to step in the labor market with the right tools and confidence. We respect the Cree’s values and traditions in each and every aspect of our work.

Our Customized Training Services, now offered since 2012, provide a range of quality training solutions in English, French and Cree to upgrade employee skills and boost workplace productivity. Our services has over thirty years of experience in training and education and are tailored to individuals, businesses, community and regional entities and organizations represented in the Cree nation.

For nearly 35 years, the Centre d’études collégiales à Chibougamau and the Service aux entreprises et aux collectivités have been offering quality services to communities in the Nord-du-Québec region.

Our mandate : welcoming, training, supporting, it is first and foremost about connecting with people, communities and businesses that convey an interest in knowing, doing and being. Customized support, the use of local driving forces and varied expertise, the search for complementarity between our actions and the socio-economic players and social equity are the values and principles guiding us in achieving it.

This is reflected in our different training programs in the fields of administration and office automation, humanities and human techniques, science and engineering. Our support services are tailored to better meet the expectations of businesses, organizations and individuals being served.

Over one thousand people have obtained a diploma or an attestation of collegial studies, including several individuals who are known entrepreneurs in the region.

From its implementation in Abitibi- Témiscamingue in the fall of 1970, the Université du Québec’s mission has been to offer its services throughout the territory of Abitibi, Témiscamingue and Nord-du-Québec. The Chibougamau and Chapais communities thus have been benefiting from the UQAT’s presence for nearly 30 years.

So far, several hundred people have taken courses and completed a program in this region, which includes more than 150 locally trained university graduates. The use of the classroom equipment through video conference is simple and makes it possible to bring together small groups of students from several towns.

The Centre de Chibougamau helps to maintain an active presence in the territory and to take part in the development of education and research in the region with its programs adapted to the realities of the environment. Some training programs are also offered in different Aboriginal communities according to the needs determined by the people who live there.
