Prepare for learning in action at Program Info Sessions

“Program Info Sessions are an opportunity for those who have already been accepted into their programs to spend some time on campus and experience first-hand what their studies are going to look like,” says Katelyn Vallee, recruitment and enrolment supervisor at Lakeland College. “It’s also a chance for those who are still looking for a post-secondary program to experience more of what Lakeland has to offer. Visitors will spend the day with the programs of their choice, experiencing hands-on activities, meeting faculty and current students and getting answers to any questions they may have. It’s a great way to learn more about what it means to be a Lakeland student!”

Program Info Sessions will be held on Lakeland’s Lloydminster and Vermilion campuses. Activities throughout the day include program sessions, facilities tours, financial aid and student support sessions.

On Lloydminster campus, students will learn about Lakeland’s business, health and wellness, energy and university transfer programs. They will see where their education will come to life while touring the Energy Centre, student-run salon and spa, and various science and health care labs.

On Vermilion campus, programs include agricultural sciences, environmental sciences, trades, human services and interior design technology. Tours will highlight the immersive learning opportunities offered on the Student-Managed Farm – Powered by New Holland, various labs and learning spaces, the Animal Health Clinic, Trades Centre and newly-renovated Commons.

“Program info sessions are the best way for someone to test drive a program and see how our programs take you beyond the classroom,” says Vallee.

Vermilion campus is also home to Lakeland’s fire and emergency services programs at the Emergency Training Centre. The fire and emergency services info session is scheduled for Aug. 22.

Attendance is free but RSVPs are appreciated.
