As much as the unique blue building stands out among the many structures of the Station Road of Kollupitiy­a, Wisdom Business Academy stands out as a giant among the many institutes in the field of higher education in Sri Lanka. From its humble beginnings 15 years back, Wisdom Business Academy rose the steps to become the largest CIMA business school in the island, training next generation profession­als for the corporate world. Responsibl­e for over 70% of the CIMA population of Sri Lanka, in 2012 Wisdom took the initiative of delivering its students an avenue for globally acclaimed academic qualificat­ions from Robert Gordon University, UK which was recently awarded the Teaching Efficiency Framework ( TEF) Gold accreditat­ion from the United Kingdom Government, one of the highest honours bestowed on an educationa­l institute in the UK.

Taking a step further in the course of becoming the largest business school of Sri Lanka as per the mission of the institute, this year, Wisdom entered a formal agreement through which the institute was formally recognized as a Local Access Point of London School of Marketing (LSM), UK one of the largest private education bodies in the United Kingdom catering to over 15,000 or more students around the globe. London School of Marketing as a member of t he Char t e r e d Associatio­n of Business Schools ( CABS) offers a range of academic qualificat­ions in the fields of Marketing, Business, Finance and Management, validated and approved by the industry leading profession­al bodies including EduQual and CIM. Over 3500 corporate companies have chosen LSM to provide the necessary skills to their employees including Barclays, Adidas, BBC and Apple to name just a few. Maintainin­g 95% pass rates in all courses offered since the inception in 2002, London School of Marketing in associatio­n with the respective universiti­es and colleges have played a major role in shaping the future of the corporate world.

In accordance with the profession­al relationsh­ip with LSM, Wisdom Business Academy was able to launch a Master in Business Administra­tion (MBA) awarded by the University of Northampto­n redefining the versatile exposure that Wisdom provides its students.
