A memorandum of understanding has been signed, providing Saskatchewan students with access to three new programs available entirely online.
Collège Mathieu and Collège Boréal have signed a collaboration agreement to expand the offer of French-language post-secondary programs in Saskatchewan, starting in September 2025. With the addition of the Public Administration, Business, and Social Services Worker programs, Saskatchewan students will now have increased access to fully online training in French.
Through Boréal Online and its 37 sites across Ontario, including 8 campuses, Boréal brings unique expertise in distance education to Collège Mathieu and its students. This new partnership reinforces Collège Mathieu's leadership within the Fransaskois community while developing an initiative that can be implemented across Canada's French-speaking community.
Future students of Collège Mathieu can register directly through their institution to benefit from the combined experience and expertise of both partners.
"This new partnership between Collège Mathieu and Collège Boréal reaffirms our institution's commitment to fostering the growth of the communities we serve. The addition of new programs will help address the shortage of Francophone and Francophile workers in in-demand sectors. We are delighted with the signing of this agreement, which paves the way for more French-language post-secondary programs that will benefit students in Saskatchewan."
Francis Kasongo, President and CEO, Collège Mathieu
"Collège Boréal is fortunate to be able to contribute to the growth of the French-speaking community across Canada, alongside renowned institutions like Collège Mathieu. This agreement enhances our ability to fulfill our mission as a leading community college, supporting the vitality of the French-speaking community and sharing the expertise that year after year earns us recognition as a partner of choice for ambitious, shared objectives."
Daniel Giroux, President of Collège Boréal
