About Lakeland
There were only 34 students when Lakeland College opened in 1913. Today we have two campuses and over 7,000 full- and part-time students --- but Lakeland is as tight-knit as ever.
Our classes are small, so your instructors get to know you --- not just your name but also your wants, needs, hopes, and fears. They can sense when to challenge you and when to cut you some slack. If you have a question or a concern, the door’s always open.
Same goes for all the student services we offer - from financial aid to peer tutoring, counselling to recreation.
Lakeland’s comfortable setting allows you to focus on learning. Our award-winning programs are designed to for an easy transition into the work force and/or further study here or somewhere else. You’ll get a university-caliber education here --- but without the red tape, the big crowds and the distractions.
It's also a great place to work. In 2019, for the third consecutive year, we were listed as one of Alberta's top 75 employers.
