Here’s a clear answer about **SIP and computer exam exemptions in ACS course**:
---
### 1. SIP (Student Internship Programme):
* **No exemption** is granted in SIP even if you have completed IT training or orientation in CA. * SIP is **mandatory** for ACS students as per ICSI rules. * You must complete the SIP program to qualify for the next steps.
### 2. Computer Training & Exemption Test (SIFY Exam):
* To get exemption from the compulsory Computer Training module in ACS, you have to clear the **SIFY exemption test** conducted by ICSI. * If you **fail the SIFY exam**, you are **not exempted** and will have to complete the Computer Training. * You **cannot skip** the computer exam if you don’t clear SIFY test; you must appear and qualify in Computer Training and Computer Exam as per course requirement.

### Summary:
| Programme | Exemption Allowed? | Notes | | ----------------- | ------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------ | | SIP | No | Must complete internship as per ICSI rules | | Computer Training | Yes, only if SIFY test cleared | Otherwise, training and exam mandatory |
