My life-changing journey started in 2018 at ESOFT Metro Campus Kurunegala with the decision to follow an HND in Business Management. After the successful completion of HND, I directly started off with the London Metropolitan University Top Up Degree with ESOFT. After three unforgettable years of studying here, I can now confidently say that this accolade is truly deserved. I gained knowledge and the skills to cater the dynamic corporate world. Great student services, a devoted lecturer staff are all at the one of the most welcoming and dynamic ESOFT Metro Campus. This paved one of the best career moves that guided the opportunity to work as an Assistant Lecturer at ESOFT Metro Campus Kurunegala.

Each of us has a unique story, a distinct path that led us to this very stage. My journey, like yours, is one marked by struggles, triumphs, and countless moments of growth and self-discovery. This testimony shares my journey and experiences, showcasing my personal growth and self-discovery. My journey began with a simple Google search for reputable universities offering the degree program I was passionate about. I was impressed by ESOFT’s high rankings and reputation for producing quality graduates, and started with ESOFT diploma, HND, and now doing business administration top-up. One of the greatest challenges I faced was continuing my education while balancing Advanced Level exams. However, I took the advantage of ESOFT's flexible learning options, which allowed me to study at my own pace. The unwavering support of my family, batch Mates, and lecturers that propelled me forward. Throughout my journey at ESOFT, I had an incredible opportunity to learn from an outstanding set of lecturers. Their dedication to imparting knowledge and fostering critical thinking left an indelible mark on me. Their willingness to go above and above by answering to my questions and assisting me with challenging concepts was crucial to my academic success. I was actively involved in a number of extracurricular activities at ESOFT, among them, being appointed as the secretary of the student Association Kurunegala for the year 2023 gave me a huge opportunity to develop my leadership skills and to network with other students. These experiences helped me develop essential soft skills, such as leadership, teamwork, and communication, which have proven invaluable in my career. Before completing my degree, I was recruited as a banking assistant by the Deutsche bank, a well reputed multinational bank in Sri Lanka. The knowledge and skills I gained during my HND program have played a pivotal role in my professional journey. Whether it's problem-solving, critical thinking, or effective communication, my education has equipped me to excel in my field. ESOFT provided me with a lot of practical exposure to the corporate sector. This exposure not only prepared me for the challenges of the corporate world but also allowed me to make informed career choices. Balancing work and academics is not easy, but ESOFT's support made it possible. The institution recognized the demands placed on students who were also working professionals, and they provided flexible scheduling, online resources, and counseling services to help me to maintain a healthy work-life balance. In closing, I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to have studied at ESOFT. It has been a remarkable journey filled with challenges and triumphs. As I step into the next chapter of my life, I carry with me the knowledge, experiences, and memories that the ESOFT has bestowed upon me, knowing that they will continue to shape my future endeavors. I am proud of my accomplishments, but I know that this is just the beginning. I am excited to see what the future holds. Thank you to everyone who has been a part of this incredible journey.

I got to know about the HND in Business (Management) at ESOFT Metro Campus Kurunegala from a suggestion of a good friend of mine. It was an amazing run since I started my degree at ESOFT. My foundation diploma and HND was started during the Covid 19 period, which is quite challenging. Despite all the odds, our lecturer panel kept us motivated and pushed us to achieve our goals in the long run. Even though there was a pandemic, lectures were continued via online platforms. I had to balance many things while doing my degree. Because, I was the president of the Interact Club and Commerce society, and I was the treasurer of the UNESCO club at Maliyadeva college. Also, I was a senior prefect, and I was following my ALs in Commerce stream as well. But assignment structure of my degree guided me to balance everything at the same time. A famous Nigerian proverb says, “It takes a whole village to raise one child”. As the proverb says, our lecturer panel guided us to excel in our academics as well as in our lives. Further, I got a great opportunity to be the President of the ESOFT Students’ Association Kurunegala, which facilitated me to enhance my soft skills. Currently, I’m working as a Trainee Tutor at ESOFT Metro Campus Kurunegala even before my AL results are released, because I completed my academics at a young age. All credit goes to ESOFT Metro Campus Kurunegala for providing the knowledge and field expertise that is necessary for today’s job market. Finally, as I always say “It doesn't matter that you went on an unusual journey if you want to achieve an extraordinary victory”
