IPM Sri Lanka re-launched the IPM Professional Qualification in Human

of Higher Education - Mohan Lal Grero as the Chief Guest, Sriyan de
Silva Wijeyeratne - Managing Director/CEO, Textured Jersey Lanka Limited
as the Guest of Honour, Members of the IPM Sri Lanka Council including

"IPM's PQHRM is a much sought after and recognized qualification for
professionals in human resources management. As the leading professional
body for human resources management, we always strive to ensure that our
members and professionals are globally competitive, and hence be
equipped with the most modern knowledge and skills so that they are in a
position to contribute as much value to the organizations that they are
attached to," said President, IPM Sri Lanka, Rohitha Amarapala.
The revamped PQHRM followed a detailed and in-depth study of the HR
and business eco-system which included obtaining feedback from all
stakeholders in the HR landscape such as potential employers in the
private and public sectors, academia, students, past students, business
leaders, staff, HR professionals and consultants.
"The prime objective of the PQHRM is to create well rounded HR
professionals with a distinct difference and an in-depth knowledge of HR
strategy and its linkage to business strategy who will be in a position
to add value to the organization in the short and long term while being
a driving force in the formulation of corporate strategic objectives at
a senior management level," said Co-Chairman, PQHRM Syllabus Steering
Committee (PSSC), Janaka Kumarasinghe. The IPM PQHRM is a professional
qualification with a distinct difference. It is a 90 credit programme
matching with upcoming Sri Lanka Qualification Framework.
