Our Story: Building Sri Lanka's HR Future
Founded in 2009 with a vision to elevate human resources practices across Sri Lankan organizations, we have grown from a small educational initiative to the island's premier HR development institution.
From Vision to Reality
Our journey began when a group of experienced HR professionals recognized a critical gap in Sri Lanka's human resources education landscape. Traditional academic programs often failed to address the practical challenges faced by HR practitioners in diverse organizational contexts, from multinational corporations in Colombo to emerging enterprises across the country.
We established our institution with a commitment to bridge this gap through evidence-based learning methodologies that combine international best practices with deep understanding of Sri Lankan workplace culture, legal frameworks, and business environments.
Over the past fifteen years, we have continuously evolved our programs based on industry feedback, emerging trends in human resources management, and the changing needs of both employers and employees in Sri Lanka's dynamic economic landscape.
