Leaders in Progress: Testimonials
"The EP & A course is unlike any other post-graduate diploma programme. It is a unique blend of theory, practice, hands-on research, and direct engagement with stakeholders that is both intellectually stimulating and directly applicable to a multitude of fields of research and work. I would very much recommend it to those of all disciplines and demographics looking to understand the workings of policy and how to weave it into their fields."
Hayati Rassool
Student - PGD In Education Policy & Analysis 2023/2024“The Cybersecurity Policy course at BALPP is one of the most unique courses I have been part of. The course has an interesting curriculum and different class format followed by the course director. In the short duration I have been a part of this course, I have already started applying the learnings in my work.”
Ahamed Nishadh
Student - PGD In Cybersecurity Policy 2023/2024"The opportunity to engage in the discourse on national education policy, across the spectrum from policy makers to elected representatives to the general public, is testament to the hands-on nature of the program offered by the BALPP. The flexibility to design the outcomes according to my goals was also a key factor in deciding to apply for the PGDip in Education Policy"
Sifaan Zavahir
Student - PGD In Education Policy & Analysis 2023/2024“I never thought that BALPP would reveal who I really am. I thought it was cool that I could do everything at once, but when I entered BALPP, I found out that I was the opposite of how I see myself in terms of my academic work. So, BALPP could be labelled as one of the best platforms for postgraduate studies in Sri Lanka.”
Pasan Wijayawardhana
Student - PGD In Economic Policy 2023/2024“Being in the program has been a complete shift of perspective where I have delved into the humanities for the first time in my life. While it is a struggle, I'm beginning to understand the intricacies of the process of policy creation and the complex impact that it has on the education system. I also appreciate the amount of practical experience that I have gained through the program and the opportunity to immediately advocate for Children’s Right to Education and Educational Equity. What I enjoy most about the program is the depth and passion in the discussions that I have with my class and professor”
Jeremy De Zilwa
Student - PGD In Education Policy & Analysis 2023/2024“From this course, I have gained so much important practical knowledge to use in my day today life. These lessons and the lecturer's knowledge are immersive. They taught us very well and everything was very clear.”
Manisha Morawaka
Student - PGD In Strategic Leadership 2023/2024“I've really enjoyed the discussions in class, and the chance to look at education policy changes happening in real time with a group of people from very different education-related backgrounds and experiences!”
