Work Connect 2011, Organised by the Leo District 306 C1
The LEO District 306C1 as one of the six Leo Districts in Sri Lanka and has been awarded as the most outstanding District Council in Sri Lanka. With the leadership of the District President Leo Dhanushka Ramanayake, the council has decided to organize a career guidance program targeting all LEO club members in Sri Lanka.
LEO Career Development Program will be the ultimate platform to expose LEO members to career options and build their understanding of the key issues to consider in career decision making.
