What Our Beneficiaries Say
The Preschool Education Training Programme has been a life-changing experience for me. I am grateful to Education Development Consortium Sri Lanka (EDC Sri Lanka)for funding this opportunity and to the University of Vavuniya for providing valuable training. The knowledge and skills I gained have improved my teaching confidence and practices. Beyond working with preschool children, I am now able to engage with parents, explain the importance of early childhood education, and successfully create awareness about preschool development. This achievement brings me great joy and fulfilment.
Mukila Niruban
- Preschool TeacherI am sincerely grateful for the opportunity to complete my Preschool Education Training Programme, funded by the Education Development Consortium Sri Lanka (EDC)Â and conducted by the University of Vavuniya. This programme enhanced my knowledge of child development, creative teaching methods, and classroom management. Graduating from the University of Jaffna was a proud achievement that strengthened my confidence and professional skills. I thank EDC Sri Lanka for supporting preschool education and empowering teachers like me to provide better learning opportunities for young children.
