An integral part of the University of Alberta's Campus Saint-Jean, the Centre collégial de l'Alberta (CCA) was founded in 2014 and is the only French-language college in Alberta. The CCA's mission is to train the next generation of Francophones and give Alberta's Francophone community access to professional services in French. Acting as a "bridge to employability," the training programs offered at the CCA are concentrated in the fields of early childhood education, health, and administration.

The CCA's training delivery is hybrid, either online or face-to-face in all programs. Training is fast-paced and adapted to the workplace.
