Lakeland College is a college in Alberta, Canada, established in 1913, with campuses in Vermilion and Lloydminster and online programmes. It serves more than 6,000 students a year and offers over 50 programmes across nine schools, from certificates and diplomas to degrees. Its focus is hands-on learning: the college states that 96% of its programmes include work-integrated learning, and agriculture students can work on the college farm.

• Agricultural sciences
• Business (Lloydminster campus)
• Energy, including process and power engineering
• Environmental sciences
• Health and wellness and human services
• Fire and emergency services, interior design, trades and university transfer

International students can take most certificate and diploma programmes, though online business and human services programmes and some others are not open to them, and some programmes are eligible for a post-graduation work permit (PGWP). Application deadlines for international students are 1 June for September starts and 1 October for January starts. Base international tuition for 2026-27 is $16,100. Both campuses have residence villages with dorms and family townhouses.
