Champlain Regional College was founded in 1971 and named in honour of Samuel de Champlain, the first governor of New France. He was a man whose accomplishments reflect the strength of his intellect, the breadth of his imagination and the quality of his judgement.

The College offers post-secondary pre-university (CEGEP), technical and training programs to communities in three distinct regions of Quebec.

Located in Quebec, Canada, the College is a public English-language educational institution which is composed of administrative offices in Sherbrooke and three campuses: Champlain-Lennoxville in Lennoxville, Champlain-St. Lambert in Saint-Lambert on Montreal's South Shore, and Champlain-St. Lawrence in the Quebec City area.
