IJTS - Revolutionizing the IT training in Sri Lanka
In the field of Information technology studies in Sri Lanka, the current trend is diverting to specialization of a carefully selected single subject. In Sri Lanka, few years back this specialization towards one strong subject was limited to a few number of rich students. They selected a special subject in IT to specialize after the graduation. For them to specialize or master a selected special subject they had to undergo overseas training.

Java Institute of Sri Lanka
During the BSc. programme, students learnt the basics of a number of subjects and later they selected one field to master. Now this trend is dynamically changing with the availability of training in Java Technology in Sri Lanka. Today the majority of the Information Technology interested students' community in Sri Lanka is waiting to finish their Advance Level examination to learn Java Technology, prior to their undergraduate studies.
There is no argument about Java Technology, that it is the best high-tech programming language currently available in the world. It is a privilege for a student to master Java Technology even after the graduation, as Java Technology facilitates a Java Professional to enter into the high end job market meeting the knowledge and skill level up to the international requirements and with high scale salaries.
IJTS - The Institute of Java and Technological Studies Sri Lanka is the organization which revolutionized the traditional IT education mechanism in Sri Lanka. The technically skilled staff of IJTS managed to introduce highly advance soft technologies to students prior to their graduate studies even just after advanced level. IJTS train students for international standards certifying them with internationally recognized professional examinations from USA. Students are trained both practically and theoretically, giving industrial experiences as major parts of the training programmes.
