Emergency Training Centre

Introduction to Lakeland College’s Emergency Training Centre Building on a Proud Tradition

An Integrated Approach to Training

Lakeland College Emergency Training Centre (ETC) is located in Vermilion, Alta., about 190 km east of Edmonton.

As a school of the college, ETC fits Lakeland’s practice of quality hands-on training for students who are workforce ready.

At ETC, no skill is taught in isolation. Courses contain an appropriate balance of theoretical and practical hands-on content, and are structured so that each new skill builds upon those previously acquired. Meteorological, topographical, and man-made variables are added to ensure realistic training scenarios. As much as possible, training is integrated to maximize the efficiency of a variety of preparedness and response agencies, including police, security, emergency medical services, public works and fire services. The training environment builds teamwork, and instructors are more than willing to provide extra assistance to ensure that students learn the skills they need.

ETC’s history as part of the public college is short, only going back to 1998 when the Alberta Fire Training School became a subsidiary corporation of the college. However, the two had been neighbours since the fire training school was established by the province over a half century ago.

ETC has three distinct client groups: pre-professional students, municipal fire services, and corporations. Training occurs on-site either at the ETC, at the client workplace and/or through distance learning.

Advisory Committees ETC relies on feedback from emergency services professionals to ensure that our training reflects and anticipates needs of the industry. Advisory committees are in place for all areas of training and include representation from municipalities, industry and other post-secondary providers.

Training ETC offers high quality training. Courses are taught to the standards of recognized national and international agencies and regulatory bodies.

Training includes:

Further Studies

• Municipal, industrial, airport and wildland firefighting

ETC is committed to collaboration with other agencies and organizations in the emergency services field. Of particular note are our partnerships with other postsecondary education providers. These offer opportunities for emergency services personnel to apply their credentials to college and university-level programs and to seek career advancement. As well, numerous partnerships have been formed within the private and public sectors to facilitate development and delivery of training.

• Integrated training for agencies involved in emergency response • Rescue training including rope, trench, and confined space • Workplace health and safety • Emergency services management and administration skills development • Emergency preparedness for municipalities, public sector organizations and industry • Full-time programs: • Emergency Services Technology (EST), one-year diploma program for career entry to the fire service or emergency medical response settings

• Firefighter Training Program (FFTP), 12-week program

• Bachelor of Applied Business: Emergency Services, 3.25-year applied degree program

Introduction to Lakeland College’s Emergency Training Centre Customized Training Most ETC training can be customized to the specific needs of an organization. We can help you analyze your training goals, define your needs and then we can recommend a program that suits your time frame and budget. Depending on your needs, customized training can borrow elements from existing programs, develop new components, or use a combination of both.

ETC can deliver customized training at its campus, at your workplace, or at another location that fits your needs.

Development of in-house personnel as trainers can be a very cost-effective, long-term solution to an organization’s training needs. ETC has extensive experience in developing “train the trainer” programs that equip personnel with the technical and teaching skills to develop and deliver training programs at their own worksites.

Corporate partnering is another facet of our innovative approach to customized training. The partnering program allows clients to construct a specialized prop in cooperation with the ETC and use ETC expertise to train employees.

Our Business Development Office would be pleased to discuss your organization’s customized training needs.

Contact us at 1.800.661.6490 ext. 2038 or 8437 or email businessdevfire@lakelandcollege.ca.

Facilities and Infrastructure ETC consists of two training sites. The main training facility, located in Vermilion adjacent to Lakeland College’s main campus, features a lecture theatre, internet-linked classrooms with interactive white boards, wireless Internet and an extinguisher lab. Apparatus includes 11 pumper trucks, a rescue vehicle, two aerial apparatus, three ambulances, a pumper/tender, an industrial pumper, a mobile command post and two buses. Our training props includes facilities for dry chemical training, technical rescue props, pumping pits, props that replicate oil refinery scenarios, two structural towers, an investigation prop, a multi-tier foam prop, a vehicle fire prop, a dangerous goods pad, a forcible entry prop and a fire behaviour prop.

For a closer look at our facilities, visit our interactive map online at lc-etc.ca/interactive-map/.

Not far from Vermilion is our remote site, which features extinguisher training that uses five-pound extinguishers to 350-pound wheeled units for municipal, industrial and airport firefighting.

• Outdoor rink For those students in the EST and FFTP programs your student ID card is your passport to the entire Recreation Centre. Municipal students attending shorter courses can access the facility by dropping by the Recreation Centre and requesting a short term pass (for a fee). All you need to do is inform the front desk at the Recreation Centre that you are taking a short course at the Emergency Training Centre and they will get you set up.

• Running • Biking • Cross country skiing • Horseback riding • Canoeing/kayaking • Fishing (stocked yearly)

Sporting equipment is also available for use on a signout basis at ETC: horseshoes, volleyball, soccer, football, basketball, and hockey.

• Camping • Mini golf/frisbee golf

Rowing

• Splash park The trails go through the trail system in the park and along the Vermilion River.

As odd as it might be to find a rowing club on the Prairies, there is definitely one in the Vermilion community.

Lakeland College also has a rowing team that competes in the fall against teams all over Western Canada.

Golfing

If you want to keep putting while on course there are two amazing nine-hole golf courses in the Vermilion area: • The Vermilion Golf and Country Club is fairly wide open, but you can get yourself into some trouble if your ball strays from the centre of the fairway. To book a tee time or for rates, call 780.853.4444.

• The Mannville Golf Course is definitely a challenge, as it is nestled in the Vermilion River Valley with many twists and turns. The third hole sports an island green which, for many, means bringing another ball out of the bag. To book a tee time or for rates, call 780.763.2252.
