The Centre de formation professionnelle Léonard-De Vinci is a vocational training centre in Saint-Laurent, Québec, formed by a 2013 merger.
The Centre de formation professionnelle Léonard-De Vinci is located in the Saint-Laurent borough, in the heart of the largest industrial park in Canada. Its mission is to offer quality training that meets the requirements of the labour market. The centre aims to help students develop technical and professional skills to increase their chances of obtaining a diploma and a job.
The centre resulted from a merger in 2013 of two vocational training centres. The former Centre de formation professionnelle de l'Ouest-de-l'île became the Édifice Côte-Vertu after the merger. Following the merger, the centre became the largest vocational training centre of the Commission scolaire Marguerite-Bourgeoys.
The Édifice Côte-Vertu offers training in accounting, secretarial work, medical secretarial work, administrative support in clinical sectors, administrative support in health and social services, IT support and sales consulting. The Édifice Thimens offers training in electronics, computer science, networking, telecommunications, locksmithing, security systems, cabinetmaking and school-based childcare service. The centre's teachers come from industry and are passionate about transmitting their knowledge and skills.
The centre comprises two buildings: Édifice Côte-Vertu at 3200, boulevard de la Côte-Vertu, and Édifice Thimens at 2405, boulevard Thimens, both in Saint-Laurent, Québec. The Édifice Côte-Vertu offers free parking, supply stores, a cafeteria, individualized teaching and computer labs with the latest technologies. The centre has well-equipped workshops and laboratories that meet program requirements. Listed facilities include a school store, examination room, lockers and parking.
