Clarification required on ignou b.com

Hello All,

Recently I got this announcement from one of my friends regarding the BCom degree under IGNOU-ICAI tie-up. The announcement says the requirement of articleship in order to get the degree has been removed. Here is an extract - 

 

 

"As approved by the Academic Council’s Standing Committee meeting held on 20th December, 2010 of Indira Gandhi Open University (IGNOU), it is decided to exclude:

Ø BCOL-001: 100 hours IT Training through Accredited Institutions from the programme structure of B.Com (A&F) for all the students.

Ø It is also decided to exclude the requirement of Completion of 3 years of articleship of ICAI."

 

Can anyone please corroborate this - since I am unable to find any such announcement on both IGNOU and ICAI websites? I have also attached a copy of the document.

ya...ur friend is right...i have obtained this info. though RTI against IGNOU

But this is of no benefit..since student will be getting degree after 3 years of registration to PCC/IPCC

Can students who have already cleared PCC/IPCC complete the course in 1 year?

Now, u need not wait 4 three years. After passing IPCC & 6 subjects of IGNOU we can get degree after 1 year. I think it may not take not more than 6 months to get B.com provisional degree from IGNOU after passing IPCC. This degree got its own special value.

Until you get YOur CA completed, u can use this degree to write any Govt.job exams, UPSC, CAT etc. AS you will be a CA final student  with 3 years experiance (Article) u will have a better edge than a nornal B.com grad. even in interview. Meanwhile u can compelte ur final.

I am ipcc cleared student.. After doing 1 year ed bcom from ignou shall every universities of india or outside india allow me to pursue mcom or any further courses. Is ignou(1 year) is worldwide recognized?

When certificate of Bcom will be available to us?
