How do I know what type of profile to create?
There are two types of profiles, "Student" and "Household". Company profiles are available but must be preapproved by calling 780-871-5712.
 
Student Profile:
  • The student profile should be used for single, individual users (both personal and professional) who wish to register for offerings such as enrichment classes, conference events, professional training, etc. This person would not likely be responsible for signing up other family members for classes.   
 Household Profile:
  • The Household Profile should be used for individuals (usually personal) that would be responsible for signing up children - or any other family member. If you think it is likely that you'll sign someone else in your household up for classes in the future, start a household profile. When registering, you will always be prompted to choose which member(s) of the household to register for each class. Each family member can have separate contact info for email receipts and confirmations - or they can all go to head of household/one email address.   
Can my Student Profile be changed to a Household Profile?
Yes, your existing student profile can be converted to a household profile so that you may register other members in your household.  Contact our registration staff at 780-871-5712 with your request.  

How do I update my profile or change my password?
You may edit or update your student profile at any time. After signing in, access the link on the menu bar entitled “My Profile” to change any of the information. Click “Edit” at the top of the page. You may then edit any of your profile fields, including password. When you are finished with your edits, scroll to the bottom of the page and click “Submit”.

What if I forgot my password?
You may reset your profile password by selecting "Forgot your password?" on the log in page. You will need to know your username and e-mail address for your profile.  If you do not know this information, please contact our registration staff at 780-871-5712.

How do I know if there is space available in the class?
If a class is already filled, there will be a "Waiting List" button rather than an "Add to Cart" button to the right of the class listing. If you choose to be put on the waiting list and an opening becomes available, a staff member will contact you. If you register for a different offering date, you may be transferred.

Will I receive confirmation of my registration in a class or activity?
When you register online, a confirmation notice and transaction receipt will automatically be sent to the email address you provide.
When you register by phone, mail, or in person, a confirmation notice and receipt will be emailed to you.
 
What are your refund policies?
Refund policies may vary according to each course. Please contact the appropriate program coordinator for more information. 
 
What if I cannot attend a course as planned?
If you cannot attend one or all of the course dates, please contact the program coordinator immediately. Failure to attend a course is not a withdrawal, written communication is required. 
 
When there is low enrollment are classes cancelled?
Lakeland College reserves the right to cancel a course. In most cases, we require a minimum number of students for a class to run. If a course is cancelled, you will receive a full refund of your tuition or you can transfer to another course. 

What if I don't see the course I want?
If you don't see the course you're looking for or want  to take, let us know.
Before you contact one of our facilitators, check ed2go to see if what you're looking for is in their online course catalog.
If your interest isn't there, please contact the appropriate program coordinator with you idea or request.

What time zone are your courses listed in? 
All courses go by the Alberta time zone, which is the Mountain Time Zone. We also observe daylight saving time, please check the local time if travelling from other provinces. 

What are the directions to the campuses and where do I go when I get there? 
Directions and campus maps can be found here for Lloydminster and Vermilion. 

Can I register for a course during campus closure dates? 
Yes, you can register online for a course any day or any time. If you need assistance, or have a question for one of our program coordinators, you will receive assistance the next business day. Please refer to our Academic Year and Term Dates calendar for college closures.
