With a view to continuing the relationship of AAT Sri Lanka Passed Finalists with the Association until they eventually obtain professional membership (MAAT) on completion of Practical Training etc., the Governing Council of AAT Sri Lanka has established "AAT Sri Lanka Achievers' Network" - the network of Passed Finalists.

There is a gap at present from the time a Student passes the Final Examination and obtains professional membership. Neither the student nor the Institute benefits much by the Students' "achievement". AAT Sri Lanka therefore wishes to recognize the "Achiever' and opens up avenues for his career development.

This is to inform you of this 'Network' and to invite you to the AAT Sri Lanka family fold so that we grow together to great heights.

Some of the benefits to members of the Achievers' Network;

Becoming part and parcel of the AAT Sri Lanka family.
Information update (SMS, Email, letters).
Receiving Students Newsletter and Members' Journal free of charge.
Opportunities for attending Seminars & Workshops organized for the Achievers' Network.
Discounts on AAT Sri Lanka Seminars / Conference for which charges are levied.
Leadership development opportunities (such as Toastmasters).
Welfare and Networking benefits.
Directions for Educational Support and Career Guidance.
Training opportunities through AAT Job Bank.
Concessions for courses conducted by AAT Business School.

Training Requirements:

Upon the completion of one year’s practical training, together with the People and Leadership Skills Work Shop (with effect from July 2015), a Passed Finalist can apply for membership of AAT Sri Lanka.

In order to complete the prescribed 01 year of practical training, you may select either of the following schemes of training;

Non-monitored Training (Experience Record Sheet Method)
Monitored Training (Agreement Method)

If you need further clarification, instruction or guidance regarding practical training, please contact the Education and Training Division of AAT on 011-2559669 or email training@aatsl.lk.
