Keep learning with us at Continuing Education and Business Services of Champlain College Lennoxville. Expand your skills; be more fulfilled with your work and with yourself. We have your learning opportunities just a click away!
Did you know that in the late 1970’s, Champlain Regional College Lennoxville’s Continuing Education Services started offering courses to the public? Results show that adults who truly desire to better themselves often dive into new learning situations with energy and determination. It had become apparent that an adult who returns to school does not come back to waste their time.
It has been many years now that we have been providing quality training tailored to the needs of the Townships workforce. In addition to our courses, the College now offers many services to individuals and businesses.
Just as individuals must change to keep up to date, so must our services. Many of the course listings you will find are specific responses to past requests from the community we serve, and we encourage you to make suggestions for new offerings you would like to see.
Since June 2016, the Continuing Education and Business Services programs are all under one roof; the Lennoxville Campus is our home now!
The Continuing Education department has also formed a collaboration with the Lennoxville Vocational Training Center. With this collaboration, we hope to better serve the needs of our Anglophone community, as well as the businesses in the Townships. We would like to encourage business owners to share with us their needs so that we can help them offer their employees and their clients a great working atmosphere and great services. At the Champlain’s Continuing Education department, we have learning opportunities- all you need to do is contact us!
