ACCA Sri Lanka moves to new premises

The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) Sri Lanka is relocating to a larger, dedicated building on Duplication Road, Colombo.

Country Manager Aruni Rajakarier said, "We had outgrown our old office on Rosmead Place and our new premises reflect ACCA's position as a modern, dynamic brand."

Since becoming one of ACCA's 80 centres worldwide with the opening of their first office in Colombo in 2002, ACCA Sri Lanka has enjoyed steady growth. Many Sri Lankans are attracted by ACCA's provision of both an internationally-recognised professional accountancy qualification and a UK BSc (Hons) degree in Applied Accounting from Oxford Brookes University.

The new premises have a futuristic interior that features state of the art facilities such as self-service internet terminals to allow on-the-spot account management and exam entry.

The building also incorporates a flexible resource and meeting area that can be configured to fit the needs of ACCA stakeholders.

However ACCA's attention to individual student counselling and excellent personal service remains unchanged.

The Chief Guest, Country Director British Council Gill Westaway commended the initiative and said that the British Council would work together with ACCA to promote the qualification.

The British Council conducts the examinations for ACCA in Sri Lanka and other countries.
