20 October 2017 Can someone tell me about the applicability of below mentioned scheme of icai and whether it is only on recommendatory basis and whether its no mandatory for every article student undergoing articleship and whether it will have any impact on our eligibility to appear in exam please tell me bcoz i came to know about it recently by someone, while it's notified last year, -"The Council of the Institute has decided to implement a minimum of 5 hours (1 day) participation, in a year, w.e.f. 1st July, 2016 on recommendatory basis in various Institute’s programmes organized by Board of Studies, Regional Councils and Branches during each year of Practical Training (Articleship period). This will be in addition to Orientation / GMCS / ITT courses of the Board of Studies (BoS). To fulfill the requirement the students are advised to participate / attend in National Conventions/Conferences/Conclaves/Regional/Sub-Regional Conferences and other seminars, Study Circle Meetings, Elocution Contest/ Quiz Contest etc. or any other programme as may be approved by BoS. Principals are requested to facilitate at least the minimum interactive hours during each year.
