Training and knowledge sharing
Campus Régitex
Campus Régitex brings together the initiatives through which the company passes on its know-how: training the next generation of workers, welcoming young people to the plant and sharing online episodes about how the company works.
Training the next generation
Since June 2022, Régitex has been training its next generation of workers at Campus Régitex, a program that is still evolving.
Régitex hosts work-study cohorts every year, the work-study (dual) format of the Diploma of Vocational Studies (DEP) in production equipment operation: people learn by doing, working at the plant while they train. The day program is offered by the Centre intégré de mécanique industrielle de la Chaudière (CIMIC), in Saint-Georges, with a group start every year in August.
At its launch in 2022, the program took 18 months and led to a Diploma of Vocational Studies in production equipment operation, on a work-study basis, with pay during training.
The Diploma of Vocational Studies (DEP) in brief
The Diploma of Vocational Studies (DEP) in production equipment operation is 870 hours long. It covers running conventional and digital production machines, preparing them for start-up, checking quality and carrying out preventive maintenance.
It is offered at the Centre intégré de mécanique industrielle de la Chaudière (CIMIC) in Saint-Georges and prepares for work as a production equipment operator.
According to the CSMO Textile, training for this trade can also take place on the job.

Our initiatives
Textile know-how is meant to be passed on. At Régitex, part of that work happens away from the production line: opening the plant, showing the trade, and making room for young people looking for theirs.
École secondaire Veilleux: a job-shadowing day
Every year, the special education class from École secondaire Veilleux spends a day at the plant. Students are welcomed like any new hire: a tour of the premises, a locker with their name on it, and a welcome message with their photo on the screens. The HR team hands them a pay stub and explains deductions and benefits. Each student is then paired, based on their interests, with someone at the plant to observe different workstations.
Some of these days have led to internships. One former intern now works full time at Régitex and has agreed to take part in a prior learning recognition process that could lead to a diploma.
Libérer pour Grandir: online episodes
On the Libérer pour Grandir YouTube channel (in French), episodes published since April 2026 describe how Régitex works day to day, with first-hand accounts from team members.
