CFIM and Radio-Canada report that two cégeps in Québec’s Gaspé Peninsula region are seeing their recruitment efforts paying off as enrolment stabilizes. Cégep de Matane and Cégep de la Gaspésie et des Îles reportedly both had low applications at this time last year, but this year, they have seen increases in their application numbers. Both institutions have been able to restore programs that were previously paused due to low enrolment. However, Cégep de la Gaspésie et des Îles directeur des études Serge Rochon noted that programs that historically attracted international students, such as the cégep’s forestry program, continue to feel the impact of provincial and federal policy changes.
