SLIIT partners Virtusa
The 'Virtusa head start' program, launched in Sri Lanka acts as the
perfect platform giving the pool of IT potential in the country the head
start they need to make it big in an ever evolving, ever developing,
ever growing IT world.
The reputed global IT services company with Sri Lanka Institute of
Information Technology (SLIIT) introduced this program with the
intention of boosting the quality of the Software Testing educational
experience and maximise student potential within the IT sector. The
program has been initiated as a means of backward integrating into the
institutes with the aim of developing a budding talent pool for the IT
industry.
The program offers the 'Certified Software Quality Assurance
Associate' course to provide a head start for students who wish to
pursue a career in Software Test Engineering. Upon completion of the
course, students qualify for a two-month internship at Virtusa, enabling
them to gather valuable experience in relation to technologies, methods
and tools used in the enterprises.
Virtusa Software Engineering Head Chandana Ranasinghe said "We have
been working very closely with SLIIT in building capacity for test
engineering over the past few years. We consider Virtusa head start to
be a milestone of our relationship, as Virtusa has moved one step closer
to creating a path that enhances the employability of graduates". |
