Dear Students, Faculty, and Colleagues,
Welcome to the College of Medicine, Nursing & Health Sciences (CMNHS) Learning & Teaching (L&T) portal.
This portal has been developed as a central platform for information, resources, and initiatives that support quality learning and teaching across the College. It reflects CMNHS’s commitment to academic excellence, continuous improvement, innovation, and professional development.
The portal provides access to a range of resources and information to support students, academic staff, and colleagues, including programme information, academic resources, assessment and examination information, professional development opportunities, the College Health Professionals Education Symposium, the College Almanac, and other Learning & Teaching initiatives.
For students, the portal provides useful information and links to support their academic journey and engagement with learning. For academic staff, it provides resources and information to support curriculum delivery, assessment, teaching enhancement, professional development, and academic quality.
The portal also provides an avenue for the College to share key Learning & Teaching initiatives and developments, while promoting collaboration and the sharing of good practices across our Schools and academic community.
I encourage all students, faculty, and staff to explore the portal and make use of the information and resources available. Through our collective commitment to quality education and continuous improvement, we can create a supportive and engaging learning environment that prepares our graduates to contribute effectively to the health and wellbeing of our communities.
Warm regards,
Prof. Jayantha Weerasinghe
Associate Dean Learning & Teaching
