University of Wayamba is located in Kuliyapitiya-around 02 hours away from Colombo. They organized a 02 days .NET Workshop on 8th and 09th and I did a session on C# Language Features including Visual Studio IDE Features.

There were nearly 25 participants and all of them from 1st & 2nd Year batches. I did a 04 hour session and laid the foundation for them to take it to next level.

January 1st was a very long day because I was waiting for the email from MVP Administrator but it didn’t not reach my inbox. Oh it came on the 2nd.

As I expected they have renewed my MVP status and this is the 3rd time in a row I’m getting nominated as a Microsoft Most valuable Professional (MVP) and the other important thing is they have changed my MVP criteria from Visual C# to SharePoint Server. So that’s it.

I’m very much proud to say I’m the 1st and only SharePoint Server MVP in Sri Lanka.
