Get ready for a challenging career in occupational therapy and physiotherapy!

The Rehabilitation Assistant program gives students the theoretical knowledge and practical skills required to work as an assistant in the fields of occupational therapy and physiotherapy. Demand for these services is growing due to an aging population and an increase in treatment rates for people of all ages.

Graduates will be able to assist physiotherapists and occupational therapists in a variety of work environments, often within a multidisciplinary team.

This program is consistent with the competencies defined and developed by the Canadian Association of Occupational Therapists and the Canadian Physiotherapy Association for support therapists.

    We offer French as a second language training to students in order to prepare you for your college studies in French.
    If you would like to know if your current French language skills meet the program requirements, please contact us and we will happily develop a French-language study program tailor-made to suit your needs.

is studying Rehabilitation Assistant

"I chose this program because I enjoy helping people regain their physical strength through specialized techniques. The courses are varied and we learn, for example, about the anatomy of the body, ethics in the workplace, verbal and non-verbal communication, and so on. The teacher is always available if I need help and to answer my questions. Offered online, this program allows me to study at my own pace, and I'm able to continue working part-time."
