Collège des administrateurs de sociétés

Training Corporate Directors on Governance Issues

In 2005, the Caisse had the initiative of creating the Collège des administrateurs de sociétés with the objective of contributing to the development and promotion of good governance and offering corporate directors the highest quality training. It joined forces with the Autorité des marchés financiers, Université Laval’s Faculté des sciences de l'administration and the ministère du Conseil exécutif du Québec to found and support the Collège. For more information, visit the Collège's Web site.

The courses provided by the Collège are designed for all directors, members of a board of directors or pension committee. They are given in the city of Québec, at the Caisse’s head office, by professors and experts who are well recognized in their respective fields.

Tailored-Made Programs
The Collège des administrateurs de sociétés offers four series of courses:

• University accreditation in corporate governance, leading to the designation of certified corporate director Administrateur de sociétés certifié (ASC);
• Governance of pension funds;
• Corporate ownership transfer for business owners;
• Training for directors of state-owned corporations and their governance, ethics, audit and human resources committees.

The Collège is pursuing its activities with the goal of becoming the centre of excellence in corporate director training and a benchmark organization in governance issues.
