OpenArc School of Business and Technology is enrolling new students for the Bachelor of Information Technology external degree (BIT) of the Colombo University, especially targeting at those who sat for GCE (A/L) this year. OpenArc, an institution that had been conducting classes for the Colombo University BIT degree for a period of ten years since the inception of the programme has made arrangements to give special discounts for students registering for the new batch.
The University of Colombo is the pioneer in introducing internal and external degrees in the ICT sphere in Sri Lanka. The Human Resources Development external degree in the ICT field, which was first launched by the University of Colombo, as it was considered a necessity at the time, has now earned national and international recognition.
Students who had passed three subjects in the GCE (Advanced Level) examination can enrol directly to read for the BIT external degree, while those with lesser qualifications can also do so by first successfully completing the Foundation in Information Technology (FIT) course after their GCE (O/L). Also, students, who sat for the GCE (Advanced Level) examination and are still awaiting results, can also make use of this opportunity to enrol for the BIT external degree course enrolling with pending results.

The first examination for this batch will be held on March next year (2012) by University of Colombo. This BIT academic programme has been designed to face successfully students for that exam.
