Cégep régional de Lanaudière à Joliette, Educational institution in Joliette, Canada

Cégep régional de Lanaudière à Joliette is an educational institution spread across multiple buildings in downtown Joliette, offering programs in agriculture, environment, arts, engineering, and health sciences. The campus serves around 2,400 students with modern labs and specialized facilities designed for hands-on learning.

The building dates from the 1840s, when Barthélemy Joliette had a two-storey stone house built before the Clercs de Saint-Viateur arrived in 1847; classes opened in 1846. In 1904 it became the Séminaire de Joliette. The Cégep de Joliette was instituted on 3 April 1968 and moved into the seminary; in 1998 it became a constituent college of the Cégep régional de Lanaudière. The city cited the building as a heritage immovable on 18 April 2016.

The college hosts agricultural fairs and business events that connect students with local employers and entrepreneurs. These gatherings shape how the campus functions as a hub for professional development in the region.

The campus occupies the former Séminaire de Joliette, whose oldest surviving wing, the 1910 professors' wing, now houses the college administration. The building stands in downtown Joliette and was cited as a heritage immovable by the city on 18 April 2016. Visitors should note that the site is an active college, so access to interiors depends on the institution's opening arrangements.

The 1899 swimming pool was built under the supervision of Father Cyrille Beaudry, who also began the Sacré-Cœur chapel in 1881. The original 1840s stone house measured 80 feet by 40 and had two storeys, a cellar and a spacious kitchen before the Clercs de Saint-Viateur arrived.
