Our Story

Building Sri Lanka's premier full-stack development academy

The Beginning

CodeLanka Academy was founded in July 2019 with a clear vision: to democratize access to high-quality technology education in Sri Lanka. Our founders, experienced software architects who had worked with international tech giants, recognized the growing demand for skilled full-stack developers in the region.

What started as weekend workshops for university students has evolved into Sri Lanka's most comprehensive full-stack development academy. We've witnessed the transformation of over 200 individuals from diverse backgrounds into confident, job-ready developers.

Our Mission

We believe technology education should be accessible, practical, and immediately applicable. Our mission extends beyond teaching code – we're building a community of problem-solvers who will drive Sri Lanka's digital transformation.

Every student who walks through our doors carries the potential to create the next breakthrough application, launch the next successful startup, or lead digital innovation in established enterprises across the island.
