Cégep de Matane is calling on the Government of Québec to provide an additional $1.5M toward the creation of a clinic for its new dental hygiene technology program. Radio-Canada states that QC recently authorized the cégep to run the program on a permanent basis and agreed to provide it with $3M in funding. While this funding is intended to cover part of the costs of renovating a technology centre into a learning clinic for the program, the cégep is reportedly facing a $1.5M shortfall for the project. Matane directeur general Martin Demers explained that the cégep has authorization to borrow $6M, but would prefer to obtain additional funding from QC.
