Cégep de l’Outaouais evaluates creation of satellite study centres, program relocation

Next month, Cégep de l’Outaouais will launch a consultation process with students, parents, and municipalities in the Outaouais region to evaluate ways to reduce physical barriers to postsecondary education access in the area. Le Droit reports that the cégep will put forth considerations to create satellite college study centres and relocate some of its programs. The cégep will also consider real estate opportunities in Saint-André-Avellin and Maniwaki, as well as discuss how to improve transportation services to the institution’s current location in Gatineau. The goal of these consultations is to identify the main obstacles to the geographical realities of the Outaouais and develop mitigation initiatives.
