What is A.E.C.?

A Attestation of Collegial Studies (A.E.C.), also known in English as Attestation of Collegial Studies (A.E.C.), The Certificat d'aptitude professionnelle (CAP) is a specialized academic certification offered by colleges in Quebec, Canada. It is generally awarded on completion of a short, targeted program designed to meet the specific needs of the workforce.

Our list of technical A.E.C. programs are designed for adult learners, especially those looking to improve their skills, change careers or enter the job market quickly. They often emphasize practical training in fields such as technology, business, health or design. These programs are shorter than traditional diplomas, and are ideally suited to people looking for targeted, industry-oriented training.
