Dhammika Perera, President and Founder of DP Education, says that through the DP Education program, the obstacles that existed until now due to financial reasons have been completely removed while entering education.
“Money has been an obstacle to education for so long. We have completely eliminated that obstacle. Today, a YouTube package costs around 500 rupees per month. We provide the opportunity to become a software engineer of your choice. I think all of that can be achieved by December 2023. That’s why there will be no obstacle to learn IT from here on.
I am trying as much as possible to make it possible to learn this through the mobile phone. We are looking at how far we can program this mobile phone, and we are on it. There may be impossible opportunities, but we will install 331 centers within the next 3 years, one for each divisional secretariat in Sri Lanka called AI Coding and Robotics Campus. I hope that the society will understand that the debt burden of this country is not a big deal any more.”
Dhammika Perera said this while participating in the awarding of prizes to the winners of the recently held ‘DP Education Digital Thoran’ competition.
