Define WIL and contact the campus coordinator

Lakeland defines work-integrated learning as intentionally connecting classroom study with workplace experience. The service lists separate coordinators for Lloydminster and Vermilion, so direct questions to the coordinator connected to the program's actual delivery.

Prepare with workshops and interviews

Student professional support includes coaching, career-readiness workshops and interview preparation. Use those steps before submitting workplace applications, while recognizing that preparation does not establish selection, a placement or later employment.

Clarify placement responsibilities

The WIL team also coordinates placement logistics and employer partnerships and offers continued employer support during a placement. Ask what responsibilities belong to the student, college and employer before treating an opportunity as part of the academic plan.

Keep program conditions explicit

WIL can be part of a program, but the page does not say it belongs to every program or student. Verify the format, eligibility, assessment, dates and compensation on the current program record before committing time or costs.

Decision checklist

  • Contact the WIL coordinator tied to the program campus.
  • Use coaching, workshops and interview preparation before applying.
  • Confirm format, eligibility, dates, assessment and compensation.
