2.5 yrs time gap

Practical training plays an important role for final exams 1.5yrs vil be very short for it and if industrial training is compulsory it may affect those who prefer practice rather than employment

i totally agree with you on the presentation skill of MBA compared to CA. We got to improve on it..

@ chirag- I second every single word you have written. Articleship period seriously needs to be shortened and industrial training should be made compulsary after qualifying CA final exams so that we can also learn industrial work culture.. And after complying with all such formalities,  ICAI can give CA degree. We have no issues regarding that..

sorry...please wrrite to icai board of studies also and recmnd ur frnz to write....

Good Thought Friend,  Ur Dream Will Realise Soon...........

Atleast 3 months Compulsory General Managmement Training should be introduced to improve communication skills of CAs.

GMCS for new candiadtes have already been increased. previously it was in the last one year of our articleship but now on onwards it's to be taken for twice in the articleship period. once in the frst year of the training and the second one in the last year of our articleship.. 
and i don't think so they'll increase the duration of GMCS, they have actually made another things just like that, is the 6 weeks residential programme.. if in this program a student enroll himself/herself then GMCS is exempt.. 
 

@ chirag - bro i totally agree to all your points mentioned above, as the change of sylabus is main concern, and the duration too.. and the gap generated in these 2.5 years also causes gap to studies.. if it's actually get's reduced to some extent like u said would help the upcoming articl trainees a lot. 
but how ICAI will come to know our discussion, is there any way, please tell me, i'll post it to them too. 

@ thanku ankit broo

you have to take print out and send a letter to board of studies.

@ chirag:- you have said important points......agree with all of them

@ divva:- totally agree with u

Dear Chirag,

Your idea and concept is good, but i like only some of your ideas... i like your industrial training point but communication skill is there in orientation and in GMCS... articleship for 3 years is good one why to reduce it? you can do industrial training in between... i am not opposing you but i think pattern of ICAi is good... you can do many things as per existing pattern... sorry if u hurt..

AS PER MY OPINION :-

                                1.   ARTICLESHIP SHOULD BE OF 1.5 YRS.

                                2.   3 M0NTHS COMPULSORY COMPUTER TRAINING INCLUDING

                                        EXAM AT THE END LIKE MAIN EXAMS.

                                3.   3 MONTHS INTENSE G M C S PROGRAM.

                                4.   1 YEAR COMPULSORY INDUSTRIAL TRAINING. INSTITUTE

                                      MAY TIE UP WITH COS. IN THIS REGARD.
