How It Works

From your first phone call to your first day abroad.

Six steps. Here is exactly what you do, and exactly what we do.

From your first phone call to your first day abroad

  1. Inquire & register

    Call, WhatsApp or visit us. You do not need a passport to start.

    You
    Tell us your name, your WhatsApp number, your district and the trade you are interested in.
    We
    We register you, explain the course and the fee, and answer your questions in Sinhala or English.
  2. Profile & assess

    You sit three assessments: aptitude, personality and trade skills.

    You
    Answer honestly. The personality assessment has no right answers and nothing to fail.
    We
    We record your details, your current work and the job you are applying for, and build your profile.
  3. Enrol & prepare

    Your place is confirmed, your documents are checked, and your training week is arranged.

    You
    Bring what you have. If you do not have a passport yet, tell us and we help you apply.
    We
    We confirm your batch, check your document list, and arrange accommodation and transport for the week.
  4. Train

    One week, Monday to Friday, 08:00 to 17:00, hands-on in your trade.

    You
    Attend every day and do the work. Batches are up to 50 trainees.
    We
    We train you on real materials and real tools, in Sinhala or English, with safety throughout.
  5. Get certified

    Pass your assessments and receive a certificate that can be verified.

    You
    Complete your assessments and show what you can do.
    We
    We issue a certificate carrying a unique number and a verification QR code, so an employer can check it is real.
  6. Get placed

    You are shortlisted and submitted to an overseas employer by our in-house placement agency.

    You
    Give your consent for your details to be shared, and keep your documents valid.
    We
    We prepare your shortlist entry, warn you before any document expires, and submit you to employers. The employer makes the final selection.

What we handle for you

The parts that catch people out, we do with you.

  • Registration, even if you arrive with no passport and no NIC copy
  • Help applying for a passport if you do not have one yet
  • Three assessments, in Sinhala or English
  • A document checklist kept for you, with a warning before anything expires
  • One week of hands-on training in your trade
  • Accommodation and transport during your training week
  • A certificate with a unique number and a verification QR code
  • Your shortlist entry, and submission to overseas employers by our in-house agency

Your documents

Typically required. The exact list depends on the destination country and on what the employer asks for.

  • Passport copy
  • NIC copy
  • Photograph
  • Police clearance
  • Medical certificate

We record your permission separately for each purpose, as required under the Sri Lankan Personal Data Protection Act. You can agree to some and refuse others.

  • Processing your personal data

    Permission to hold and use the details you give us to register, train and place you.

  • Being photographed

    Permission to take your photograph for your file and your certificate.

  • Recording a demo video

    Permission to record a short video of you working — a video CV an employer can watch.

  • Sharing your details with the agency

    Permission to put you on a shortlist and submit it to an overseas employer.

What we do not promise

We do not guarantee a job abroad, and we will never tell you we can. We train you, assess you, certify you and submit you to overseas employers through our own agency. The employer decides who they select. Anyone in this business who promises you a guaranteed placement is not being straight with you.

What we do promise is that you will always know what stage you are at, what is still outstanding, and what it costs.

Still have questions? Ask us.

Call or message us in Sinhala or English. No obligation.
