Distinguished Citizen recognition

Lakeland College presented its first honorary credential in 2006. There was a gap of 4 years before an honorary credential was presented for the second time.

In 2013 the first of our distinguished citizens were recognized on both campuses. Canadian Olympian Beckie Scott and long-time federal politician Don Mazankowski were recognized on the Vermilion and Lloydminster campuses respectively.

Since then every Lakeland convocation features a distinguished citizen who receives their honorary credential and also addresses the graduates and audience.

Plaques of each distinguished citizen are displayed on both campuses.
