Cégep Heritage College is a publicly funded English-language college (cégep) in Gatineau, in western Quebec, Canada, about 10 minutes from downtown Ottawa. English-language college education in the Outaouais began in 1969, and the current campus on boulevard de la Cité-des-Jeunes opened in 1994.

The college offers technical and pre-university programmes leading to a Diploma of College Studies (DCS), as well as one-year continuing education programmes leading to an Attestation of College Studies:

• Technical: Business Administration, Computer Science, Early Childhood Education, Electronics Engineering Technology, Graphic and Web Design, Nursing, Special Education Techniques
• Pre-university: Liberal Arts, Science, Social Science, Visual Arts

Admission is open to applicants from Quebec, the rest of Canada and abroad. International applicants need education equivalent to the Quebec Secondary V diploma, apply online through the SRAM, and must prove sufficient English. Once accepted, they obtain a Quebec Acceptance Certificate and a Canadian study permit and need health insurance. Heritage has no on-campus housing; its website lists rental resources in Gatineau, where leases usually run for a full year.
