SriLankan Aviation College, the training arm of SriLankan Airlines, has spread its wings to the North and the East of Sri Lanka by partnering with British College of Applied Studies (BCAS) to provide students in the region a pathway to internationally-recognized qualifications in aviation.
SriLankan Aviation College found a capable franchisee partner in BCAS following a rigorous bid process, and several of its programmes will now be available via BCAS’ campuses in Jaffna and Kalmunai, delivered by SriLankan Aviation College’s very own expert panel of aviation trainers.
The partnership between SriLankan Aviation College and BCAS will offer an extensive array of training programmes including internationally recognized certifications from the International Air Transport Association (IATA), European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), Civil Aviation Authority of Sri Lanka (CAASL) and other authorities. With the convenience of enrolling at their nearest BCAS campus, both school-leavers and professionals alike can now acquire an esteemed qualification that also meets their personal needs from within their hometown. With over 34 years of experience in aviation training to international standards, SriLankan Aviation College offers a wide range of training options to the country and the region. The college is certified by EASA, IATA, International Organization for Standardization (ISO), the Civil Aviation Authority of Sri Lanka, the Civil Aviation Authority of Pakistan and the Civil Aviation Authority of Maldives. It is also a member of the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAES) and the European Aviation Maintenance Training Committee (EAMTC).
