Boréal College is a proud postsecondary partner of the Destination Réussite (DR) initiative. DR is a unique French-language education initiative established by the Ontario Ministry of Education to support learners in their path to successful integration into the workforce. This initiative provides support to school boards so that, together with their postsecondary partners, they can offer diverse and high-quality learning opportunities in a Francophone environment.

School-College-Work Initiative

Boréal College is a proud postsecondary partner of the School-College-Work Initiative (IJECT). Established in 1997, IJECT is a joint initiative mandated to facilitate the transition of students between high school and college. IJECT finances DRC credits, as well as activities and forums that contribute to the success of high school students. IJECT also helps students transition from high school to college and apprenticeship programs.
