Melwa empowers Sri Lanka’s construction sector with skill-building workshops for technical officers and welders

Melwa, Sri Lanka's leading steel wire manufacturer, organised a workshop on the construction industry for Technical Officers (TOs) in the Anuradhapura District. This workshop took place on 7 November at the Mango Hotel in Anuradhapura, with nearly 100 TOs in attendance.

Additionally, Melwa held a special training programme for welders on 9 November at Muthu Villa Hotel in Walasmulla. The programme aimed to enhance the professional skills of welders in the construction industry and provide them the nationally recognised National Vocational Qualification (NVQ) Level 03 certification. Nearly 200 welders participated in this programme, organised with full support from Melwa Company. During the training, they were provided with the knowledge on how to use galvanised iron (GI) pipes and Box Bars effectively with the right technology for construction work. They also explored new techniques for creatively applying these materials in the construction industry. In the end of the programme, all participants received a valuable certificate from Melwa, and the company provided additional training and financial support for a select group of welders to obtain the NVQ Level 03 certificate awarded by the National Vocational Training Authority (NVTA). Melwa had also arranged for each participant to receive a valuable set of equipment.

Aiming to provide construction industry workers in Sri Lanka with opportunities to obtain proper professional training and achieve a qualification that is recognised both nationally and internationally, Melwa continues to conduct this series of programmes across the island. Beyond hands-on experience, a recognised professional qualification like this adds significant value for professionals to employment opportunities both within Sri Lanka and abroad.
