REASON FOR WORKING IN EASTERN TOWNSHIPS:

  • Here is the perfect balance. The dynamic balance that we all seek between the realization of our personal and professional dreams. The balance between proximity to major centers, with all the urbanity they provide, and rurality with its generous nature and diversified activities.
  • Here, 40,000 students learn and develop skills through nearly 900 postsecondary programs and training and more than 100 vocational training programs. A wealth that generates creativity, a taste for going beyond and opening up to the world.
  • Here, it is also health through the practice of activities of all kinds and through healthy lifestyles.

Here, the playground is huge and nearby:
peaks, trails, rivers, lakes, infrastructures and sports clubs. Whether you are a Sunday athlete or a high level athlete, you will find something to keep you in shape

  • Here, the landscapes of the Townships are varied and its nature is generous: lakes, rivers, mountains, vines, marshes, conifers, deciduous trees, valleys. Our bucolic landscapes encourage contemplation and letting go. In the fall, the landscapes ignite to create a panorama typical of southern Quebec.
