Colombo, Sri Lanka – October 1, 2025 – Prospects College of Higher Education (PCHE) announced a strategic partnership with XpressJobs, Sri Lanka’s leading recruitment platform, through the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). This collaboration aims to enhance career opportunities for PCHE students by directly integrating the latest job openings and internships into the university’s career portal.
With diploma and foundation programs already established, PCHE will be launching its first degree programs this year in Early Childhood Education, Psychology, Information Technology, and Business Management. Through this partnership, students across these disciplines will gain access to tailored job listings.
For XpressJobs, this partnership is particularly meaningful, as it marks the company’s first collaboration with a university offering specialized programs in Early Childhood Education, a field in which the platform regularly supports teacher and education-sector vacancies, including lecturers, counselors, and academic professionals.
At XpressJobs, when we partner with universities, we look for those offering diverse disciplines so our corporate clients benefit from a wide pool of candidates, while students gain access to a range of opportunities across different sectors.
