Orientation course prior to articleship ?

Dear Poojan,

Orientation Program is compulsary program completed by every students who wants to go under the articleship. If you have not completed by anyone the date of commencent of articleship will be the date of completion of orientation program. So, your attemt will be surely delay. 

You must first complete orientation and should send the copy of the same to ICAI. Then only they will consider your date of articleship. Doing articleship will not be counted. It will be counted only after ICAI takes into consideration of your certificate. Else your final attempt will also be delayed. So complete it as soon as possible. There is no ther way.
