I studied English and an IT Basic Course at Golden College. The lecturers taught us in a very friendly and approachable way, making it easy to understand and learn. Their guidance was extremely useful and helped me build my knowledge and confidence.

Thank you to all the lecturers and Golden College for their support and dedication.
I am following a Pre and Primary Teacher Training HND level course at Golden College. Before starting this course, I did not have much knowledge about teaching methods. But now, I understand the techniques that make students interested and help make teaching easier and more effective. We learned many methodologies. In the future, I plan to follow a B.Ed. degree here. I sincerely thank my madam, Shafrina Zaheer, and Golden College for giving me this great opportunity to improve my professional knowledge and skills.
I live in Kandy and work as a Demi Chef de Partie with 4.5 years of hotel experience. Golden College helped my dreams come true. I finished my hospitality course after 2022 thanks to the Principal and amazing lecturers: Chef Raj, Chef Dinesh, Sir Sampath, Mrs. Nirmali, Mrs. Ishanka, and Sir Shamil. After graduating, I worked at Shangri-La Colombo. The college remains my lifetime guide, and I am incredibly grateful for their endless support.
