Cenovus Energy invested $2 million in Lakeland College to enhance student learning spaces and expand programming aimed at building the region’s future workforce.

The funding supported upgrades to the Cenovus Energy Production Lab and Power Engineering Lab at the Lloydminster campus, while also modernizing student learning spaces within the School of Trades and Technology at the Vermilion campus.

The investment extended beyond physical spaces, opening new pathways for students through expanded dual credit programming.
