Welcome to the frontline of emergency training

Lakeland College's Emergency Training Centre (ETC) offers hands-on training at Canada’s largest—and most comprehensive—first responder training centre.

ETC has prepared first responders for critical roles in emergency services since 1959. We’ve always been on the forefront of hands-on learning.

You’ll benefit from live scenarios on our training field’s props. Those authentic real-world experiences start with solid classroom teaching. Plus, you can take advantage of our campus fitness facilities and residence.

Don’t settle for less. By choosing Lakeland, you’re choosing to be more than prepared. You’re choosing to stand out as a top-tier first responder. And, to stand among the ranks of the extraordinary.
