About Us
North America's largest francophone publisher in the field of education, from preschool to university
A Canadian leader in French-language educational book publishing
More than 5 000 French-language and immersion educational institutions in Canada use Chenelière Éducation's resources. We are the partner of choice of the ministries of education of every province and territory in Canada, and offer high-quality educational resources to all Francophones and French-language learners.
All of our elementary and secondary textbooks have been approved by the ministry of education of the province or territory where they are used. Many of our titles are also distributed in other French-speaking countries, in particular a unique and impressive collection of more than 500 professional development titles.
In addition to being the leading publisher for elementary and secondary education in Canada, we also publish textbooks for most subjects taught at the college and university level. This exceptional array of pedagogical resources includes a catalogue offering a wealth of titles for teachers and students in Québec's Anglophone community.
Chenelière Éducation also distributes pédagogical resources from European publishers as well as those published by the Association québécoise de pédagogie collégiale (AQPC) and the Centre collégial de développement de matériel didactique (CCDMD).

Expertise to guide you in your use of new education technologies
Chenelière Éducation also leads the way in Canada when it comes to applying new technologies to education. The launch of the i+ Interactive platform in summer 2019 is a testament to the way we integrate technology and pedagogy into our activities. Chenelière Éducation also offers a digital version of its textbooks to make learning more interactive, intuitive and fun for both learners and teachers.
The COVID-19 pandemic changed the world of teaching and we adapted our pedagogical solutions accordingly with the launch of tools for Distance Learning. We continue to help educators adapt to this new reality, providing them with booklets, videos and webinars designed by specialists in the field. We also offer webinars on how to use the i+ Interactive platform effectively. Our Distance Learning tools are evolving with the return to in-class teaching.
