Most students who face the Sri Lankan Advanced Level Examination at present achieve the proficiency required to enter university education. Although the percentage of those who qualify increases every year, the opportunities available for students to enter university given the limited educational facilities are very low. It is therefore a necessity that students who do not have the opportunity to enter local universities but who possess the requisite knowledge of their chosen field are given a viable alternative, which is an opportunity to follow another accepted degree.
The Institute of Chartered Accountants of Sri Lanka (CA Sri Lanka), with a 55 year history of creating globally sought after chartered accountants– has taken the timely step to fulfil a much needed gap in education by offering the BSc. Applies Accounting degree.
The Applied Accounting Degree is a course which has been approved by the University Grants Commission of Sri Lanka. The course spans three years and each year consists of two terms, while its focus on practical knowledge is a specialty of the programme. The delivery of the degree moves away from the traditional method and is not only limited to lectures but also encourages self-study by students and is designed to sharpen their soft skills, communication and presentation skill
