The Global Skills Development Campus (GSDC) was found as a strategic response to Japan’s Specified Skilled Worker (SSW) Program, a significant initiative aimed at addressing labor shortages in Japan’s vital industrial sectors by attracting skilled professionals from around the world. Recognizing the immense potential of this program, GSDC was established with a clear vision: to create a dynamic platform for the exchange of knowledge, ideas and expertise.
Originally focused on preparing individuals for opportunities under the SSW Program, GSDC has since broadened its scope to meet the growing global demand for skilled professionals in various fields. Our campus now offers specialized training in Information Technology, Artificial Intelligence, language proficiency and the latest advancements in science and innovation. Through our diverse programs, GSDC equips students with the practical skills and knowledge needed to excel in competitive international job markets.

“GSD Campus has truly been a pioneer in introducing the Specified Skilled Worker (SSW) visa program in Sri Lanka. In my opinion, they have played a pivotal role in opening doors for countless Sri Lankan students, helping them secure SSW jobs in Japan. Thanks to their comprehensive training and guidance, many students, including myself, have been able to successfully navigate the process and build fulfilling careers in Japan. GSD Campus has paved the way for new opportunities and made the dream of working abroad a reality for so many. I am incredibly grateful for their efforts and dedication.”
