University of Moratuwa (UoM) and Dhammika and Priscilla Perera Foundation (DP Foundation) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on 2 June to facilitate open online course development and delivery at the Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) level of the Project Management Institute, USA.
The objective of this initiative is to provide opportunities to learn free of charge the required knowledge at the level of CAPM to all project participants in Sri Lanka. It comprises 12 foundational modules that cover the knowledge and skills at the CAPM level.
DP Foundation, through its DP Education arm will assist the University of Moratuwa on this new initiative by providing the required funding and supportive human resources for the creation of content for the 12 online foundational modules.
The first initiative between the University of Moratuwa (UoM) and the DP Education was the launch of “Trainee-Full Stack Developer” online program offered free of charge to students who had completed their Advanced level examinations. This initiative was launched on 22 February. Within the first 100 days of the launch more than 83,000 students had enrolled for this course.
