Cole Des Hautes Tudes Commerciales De MontralMontreal's cole des Hautes tudes Commerciales, Canada's first management school, was founded in 1907 by the Chambre de commerce de Montral. The school is affiliated with the University of Montreal and is considered to be one of the country's top business schools. The school has officially been known as HEC Montral since 2002; the name was changed to differentiate it from institutions such as HEC Paris and HEC Lausanne, and to enhance the schools profile on the world stage. (HEC has jokingly been said to stand for "Highly Educated Crooks", and this rendition has been seen in the HEC Montral student newspaper over the years.) On a more serious note, HEC Montral has been turning out managers for close to a century and was the first business school in Canada to offer evening classes for adults, in 1917. In the last three decades it has undertaken several research programmes, in addition to training its students in the craft of administration and management. The language of instruction at HEC Montral is French (although some courses are offered in English and Spanish) and the business culture is North American. In 1997 HEC Montral was also one of the first schools to make the use of laptop computers mandatory to all new students in the Bachelor of Business Administration program. External link
