The SAB Campus of The Chartered Institute of Sri Lanka (CA Sri Lanka) and the Association of Accounting Technicians Sri Lanka (AATSL) recently embarked on a new path in accounting by signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) aimed at advancing and collaborating professional education. The MOU grants exemptions for members of AATSL by way of lateral entry to the BSc. in Applied Accounting (General) Degree Programme. 

The primary objective of this collaboration is to enhance the qualification process for students aiming to obtain an accounting degree from CA Sri Lanka. By providing these exemptions, the MoU opens up new avenues for AATSL members to pursue a globally recognized degree that is approved by the Ministry of Education and recognized by the University Grants Commission. 

This partnership not only reinforces the commitment of both institutions to academic excellence but also ensures that students have access to a world-class education that meets international standards.

CA Sri Lanka President Heshana Kuruppu and AAT Sri Lanka President Indraka Liyanage signed the MOU on 16 July at the Hilton Colombo Residencies. 

Heshana Kuruppu said the MOU grants an efficient pathway for students. “This is a great opportunity for those seeking to pursue further studies in accounting. This MOU will facilitate seamless academic progression for AAT members, apart from resource sharing among the two institutes.”

“This collaboration brings together the expertise and resources of our professional bodies with the academic excellence of SAB campus. We are particularly excited about the opportunities and this partnership will create a pathway for AATSL members”, explained Indraka Liyanage, President of AATSL.
