From its humble beginnings in 1998, with over two decades of professional industry experience, the Skills Development Fund Ltd. (SDFL) has embarked on a successful journey enriching the lives of thousands of employees both in the public and private sectors. With the guidance of SDF Chairman Dr. Kapila Ranasinghe and a dynamic and highly motivated team, SDFL is expanding its horizons and embarking on new journeys.

In line with this, SDFL has partnered with EduCorp to drive a unique CSR initiative by offering Career Guidance and Student Counselling for O/L and A/L students.

On this note a series of Career Guidance and Education consultation seminars were and are being organised in collaboration with EduCorp for O/L and A/L students by Skills Development Fund Limited. These events were of many that are being organised throughout the island to educate and enlighten both students and their parents with the objective of creating awareness towards the best approach in selecting higher educational studies to make it a step closer to achieve their dreams in their academic/professional careers.

The uniqueness of this CSR initiative is that, students are able to have one-on-one sessions with highly professional and an experienced panel of counsellor’s (industry experts) that will guide

students to select the most suited higher educational institute(s) both local and overseas, that will help fulfil their needs and career objectives, while all these services are offered free of charge at no cost to the students. With career guidance, student counselling and quality training, we make all endeavours to develop programs regularly, to create awareness amongst the younger generation while enhancing the Human Resource capabilities, thus contributing towards the productivity of the population.
