Other Services Offered
Comparative evaluation for studies
In collaboration with the Ministère de l’Éducation (MEQ) and the Ministère de l’Immigration, de la Francisation et de l’Intégration (MIFI), we offer an advisory service for comparative evaluation for studies and credential assessment services for international students who wish to study vocational training.
We contribute to the enrichment of Appendix 5 of the Administrative Guide for the Certification of Studies and Management of Ministerial Examinations by using the assessments created through our services. That appendix lists scholastic equivalences that have been pre-validated by the Ministry to admit international students. Our growing bank of evaluated documents and the expertise we have developed over the past years allow school service centres members to benefit from quality advisory and priority services.
For more information on how to benefit from this service, visit the Member Portal or contact us.

Group insurance for international students
It is the responsibility of vocational training and adult education centres to ensure that their international students have the appropriate coverage during their stay in vocational training. Therefore, we offer a group insurance program for international students.
The coverage has been designed to meet the specific needs of international students, while ensuring to keep the monthly cost as affordable as possible.
