ABOUT

Organisation summary:

Our partner college is a leading authority on theological and pastoral education in Sri Lanka.  It takes great pride in bringing together Sinhala and Tamil students, both male and female, in work and leisure.  The college would like an experienced IT Consultant to offer advice on updating their IT systems.

Job description:

The successful volunteer will make recommendations and assist the college to upgrade its systems throughout the campus, especially in the offices, library and auditorium.  Experience of training others in use of IT systems would be beneficial as students and staff may require help to use IT equipment in a more efficient way.

Requirements:

The successful volunteer will be suitably qualified and experienced in IT systems.  It is also very important that they have the patience, understanding and tolerance to work in a low-resource environment.

Please note that this is a voluntary position. Although accommodation will be provided by our partner organisation, volunteers will be required to raise some funds to cover their flights and time overseas.
