Clancy
is World’s best CIMA Tutor of the Year
Sri
Lanka’s M.M. Clancy Peiris attached to the Wisdom Business
Academy, Colombo, was adjudged world’s best CIMA Tutor of the
Year 2007 by the global charetered management accountancy body.
Clancy, who is a Director and Senior Lecturer at the Wisdom Business
Academy, was the only Sri Lankan individual to win an award at the
annual CIMA Financial Management Awards 2007 held in London last
week.
Last year too, Sri Lanka produced the best Tutor of the Year with
the award won by Gajendra Liyanaarachchi of the Virtual Business
School.
Clancy won the award beating others globally as well as two Sri
Lankan nominees Senaka Kakiriwaragodage, NDB Investment Bank (NDB
Investment Bank), and Hasitha Premaratne (Wisdom Business Academy).
Thanushka
Jayasundera, HSBC Sri Lanka was the other individual Lankan nominee
for part qualified of the year award.
CIMA said that successful students are usually a product of successful
tutors and this award is about celebrating those who go out of their
way to inspire and guide the next generation of management accountants.
The judges were looking for a mix of best practice training programmes
for CIMA students, excellent results and positive student testimonials.
CIMA in selecting Clancy Peiris as the Tutor of the Year said he
impressed the judges with the best practice methods he employs to
teach and support his students. “Using mind-mapping and other
innovative tools, he spurs his students to overcome barriers around
language and exam technique using his scientific approach and constant
personal support and involvement with individual students,”
CIMA said.
“The result is exceptionally motivated students and very high
pass rates compared with the country national average in Sri Lanka,
his home country, particularly at Certificate level but going right
up to final level of the professional qualification,” CIMA
added.
