Commenting on the partnership‚ Rajendra Theagarajah‚ Non-Executive Chairman BCAS Campus‚ Sri Lanka said‚ “BCAS is delighted to partner with SriLankan Aviation College in delivering a range of courses in Hospitality and Aviation related subjects through its campuses in Jaffna and Kalmunai.

We hope that this partnership commencing in the North and East will eventually cover the entire country.”
