IIHE : For Professional Leadership and Personal Development
View(s):When it comes to private tertiary education in Sri Lanka, the choices available to a student can sometimes seem mind boggling. So on what basis should a student choose one institute over the other? 
COO of the prestigious Imperial Institute of Higher Education (IIHE) Mr. Harshana D Perera offers these key insights into the advantages IIHE offers “We are one of the few institutions with direct association with the parent University, and the quality of the Programmes we offer are subject to the quality assurance systems of the Quality Assurance Agency(QAA) in the UK. Every step of the way our students receive the best international standards in terms of curriculum, assessment systems and grading, completion times and admission criteria. IIHE has been and always will be an institution that will offer Degrees from Internationally reputed Universities ensuring that our students fulfil their goal of becoming a preferred professional in the global market”
Established in 1996, IIHE has since gained a solid reputation for providing validated Degrees from the University of Wales, UK, and is the only institute in Sri Lanka that can claim a direct association with the University.
Revanke De S Wijeyeratne who graduated with a BSc (Hons) in Business Management from the University of Wales UK at IIHE also selected IIHE to peruse his MBA from Wales. He offers this insight “IIHE offers many an advantage… students are listed as internal students of the University of Wales… which allows us direct access to the University of Wales Online Library Servicers as well as its 
Alumni…The lecture panel at IIHE too is a major advantage. Lecturers who are industry experts allow students to gain the practical knowledge which in no doubt creates a valuable learning experience…The requirement of a dissertation for both its BSC and MBA students .is an added advantage, allowing you to gain valuable insights in to the research problem chosen and instilling in you many analytical skills and competencies”.
The IIHE teaching methodology includes a combination of Real Life Problem Solving (RLPS), a mandatory Dissertation, Case Study Analysis, Role Play and Group Discussions; and ensures that students receive first hand experience in top tier corporates, use their theoretical and scientific methodology in real life corporate settings, and engage in intensive research and analysis .
IIHE is proud to have seen its Alumni step out into the corporate world both here and internationally and succeed in attaining positions of prominence and responsibility – taking on management and leadership roles in the most sought after companies. Speaking of the weight an IIHE qualification adds to a CV Mr Wijeyaratne testified that “IIHE is very well recognized in the corporate world as an institute that offers a comprehensive curriculum for its BSc and MBA students…For me personally the experience and knowledge gained through the programmes followed at IIHE has allowed me to better equip myself in the corporate world, the constant emphasis on creative learning and out of the box thinking has undoubtedly been a great advantage”.
IIHE is an institution reputed for excellence, maintaining the highest international standards, ever evolving to include courses and qualifications that meet the needs of today’s students, and displaying a consistent commitment to ensuring the success of its alumni. Summing it up, Mr Wijeyeratne said “IIHE would be the ideal place, where value for money is guaranteed. Its comprehensive curriculum coupled with the competent lecture panel, the numerous services offered and its easy accessibility makes the decision making process that much easier.”
