On April 15, 1968, les Corporations de l’Externat Classique Saint-Raphaël et du Collège Marie-de-la-Présentation partnered for the school year 1968-1969. Over time, other institutions in Drummondville joined in the partnership: L’école des Infirmières, l’Institut familial Sainte-Marie et le cours technique de l’École de Métiers. The Cégep de Drummondville was founded in 1968 with 500 students in the first year. It affiliated with the Cégep of Saint-Hyacinthe in 1970. In 1972, a partnership of CEGEPS from Drummondville, Saint-Hyacinthe and Sorel formed le Collège régional Bourgchemin.
In 1980, the government of Quebec granted a charter of Cégep de Drummondville and the CEGEP opened its doors on May 13, 1980-1981 with 1171 students in pre-university teaching and 475 in continuing education. Since 1968, Cégep de Drummondville was housed in a variety of temporary buildings. In 1982, the Cégep moved in its new facility at 960, rue Saint-Georges. In January 1986, Cégep takes possession of phase II of its building. In 1990, the CEGEP was englarged to accommodate 1800 students. The maximum number d' students (nearly 2000) was in 1995-1996.
