“With the world distracted by the COVID-19 pandemic, new transformational behaviors have taken place in people. In the education sector, students no longer need to travel far with heavy financial burden, but rather acquire the same qualification at a fraction of the cost from home and with much shorter travel. LSBF in Singapore affords a balance in quality of education, with the shorter duration and the blended mode to meet today’s time flexible environment. I am glad to be partnering with SEDEF in Sri Lanka to bring this innovative idea to the students. The opportunity is open for every working professional to pursue higher education with ease and to be assured of a qualification that is world recognized”, says Global CEO of LSBF – Mr. Rathakrishnan Govind.

Ms. Harshani Weerathunga, Director of Education, stated, “Through SEDEF Online Campus we are aiming to bridge the prevailing gaps on equality through enabling accessibility to knowledge for every citizen in the country. Our programmes are affordable, and we are establishing a career guidance unit for youth to guide their future to become a productive citizen in this country. Our next target is to introduce more than 2000 hybrid programmes (Online and Physical) in the near future”.
