Dear Friends and Professional Colleagues,

As we all are well versed with  ICAIs 27th March09 Articles Announcement, that stipulates mandatory maintenance of articles training record by an article assistant, since ICAI at any point of time may demand and principal to present such record of any of the trainee that is registered and/or serving him. As a chartered accountant student undergoing articleship, I am well versed with all the practical difficulties that we have to face, if we have to maintain such records. As far as MNCs and other big firms are concerned, they might not face this problem, as they are equipped with well established HR and administrative staff system that maintains all these records, but as far as medium sized and small sized CA firms are concerned, there the trainee himself/herself have to maintain such record.

Considering all these hindrances and barriers I have made an attempt to come out with such a package, which eases us in maintenance of Monthly Articles Training Record along with the details of date wise workings. So please get a copy of it and maintain it regularly to continue with hassle free articles training and become a successful chartered accountant.

Now, you might be thinking that whether it is the standard format prescribed by ICAI..?
My dear friend, ICAI have not specified the format of the Work Diary, they have just given the contents that must be covered in the Work  Diary (Please refer ANNEXURE  II of The Articles Training Guide as attached with this file), considering those contents and after discussing with some CA Faculties in my domicile town Pune, I have came out with this composition.

I will be highly obliged if I could receive any suggestions/opinion/recommendations/Feedback from you on my E-Mail Id anshulagrawal@icai.org.
Thankyou,
