History
The Cégep de Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu traces its origins to the merger of several institutions which became public ones in 1967, when the Quebec system of CEGEPs was created.
Programs

CEGEP de Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu then prepared students for university or to enter a technical profession. Most of the Cégep's technical programs are delivered through the Bureau de liaison avec l'entreprise (BLE – business liaison office) which coordinates internships to students in Quebec and abroad.
