Top achievers at the 2020 GCE Advanced Level exam will receive full scholarships from the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Sri Lanka (CA Sri Lanka), enabling them to kick start a successful professional journey as globally recognised Chartered Accountants.

A total of 75 scholarships will be awarded to the highest achievers under six schemes. Accordingly, 50 scholarships will be awarded to the top ten achievers from commerce, biological science, physical science, arts and technology streams, while 25 district toppers of the commerce stream will also be awarded full scholarships from CA Sri Lanka.

The total duration of the CA Sri Lanka scholarship will be for five years with fees waived off for student registration, annual student renewal, exam and study pack fees as well as fees waived off for all IT and English courses which are offered as part of the CA Sri Lanka program.

Meanwhile, CA Sri Lanka recently organised a scholarship awarding ceremony where three of the top achieving students from Colombo were present to accept their scholarships. Due to the prevailing COVID-19 pandemic in the country, students from out of Colombo were unable to attend the event. Vice President of CA Sri Lanka Mr. Sanjaya Bandara and Chief Executive Officer of CA Sri Lanka Ms. Dulani Fernando presented the scholarships to island second in the commerce stream, Ms. Siriwardhanage Madhuwanthi Upamali of Visaka Vidyalaya, island third Ms. Khulusie Naadiya Mariam of Devi Balika Vidyalaya and island eighth Ms. Anjalee Dilshi Handaragama of Visaka Vidyalaya.

As a responsible, world class professional body, CA Sri Lanka has been at the forefront in helping educate the student population on the importance of obtaining a recognised and contemporary qualification, such as the Chartered Accounting qualification offered by CA Sri Lanka which has been the choice of many top business leaders for decades.

President of CA Sri Lanka, Mr. Manil Jayesinghe highlighted that the Institute is committed to ensuring Sri Lanka will continue to have the necessary skilled professionals in the future to take our nation forward. “The past one year has been the most challenging year for all of us due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, despite the challenges we have been facing, we are devoted to our cause of continuing to produce top Chartered Accountants who will give leadership not just to corporates in Sri Lanka, but also overseas. Therefore, notwithstanding the numerous challenges we are facing at present, we are determined to continue to grant scholarships to the best and brightest of students across Sri Lanka in recognition of their exceptional achievement,” he said.

The CA Sri Lanka Curriculum stands apart from most other curriculums as it builds holistic business leaders. The curriculum empowers students with all round managerial skills, thereby ensuring that they possess the skills to play a critical role in senior management such as Chairman, Managing Director, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officers among other high-profile designations.

Chartered Accountants produced by CA Sri Lanka also enjoy guaranteed employability both locally as well as overseas, while CA Sri Lanka qualified Chartered Accountants are also among the most sought-after professionals across all industries and are known to give leadership to small and medium businesses as well as multinationals, blue-chip companies and conglomerates.

The CA Sri Lanka programme is offered at three ascending levels, and at each level, the student receives a recognised qualification which guarantees their employability. Students who follow the CA program have the option of exiting as a Certified Business Accountant (CBA) after completing the Business Level or exit as a Certified Corporate Accountant (CCA) after completing the Corporate Level and as an Associate Chartered Accountant (ACA) after completing the Strategic Level, which is the final level.

Students with minimum three simple passes from any subject stream at the GCE Advanced Level can register with CA Sri Lanka.
