New CA Curriculum |
|
|
| September, 15th 2006 |
| The Government approval for new CA curriculum has been obtained and the
course has been launched today. Option has been given to the existing PE-I
students to switchover to Common Proficiency Test (CPT) course. The
students can enrol and submit examination application form upto 9th October,
2006 so as to appear for the first CPT to be held on 12th November, 2006 for
which the results will be declared on 1st December, 2006. Students who had
passed PE-I or Foundation Examination and doing PE-II are entitled to
immediately join articleship training and continue their studies. Students who
pass CPT can enter into articleship training. Those students who want more
time to prepare for CPT can appear in February, 2007 when the second CPT
will be held. The CPT will be an objective type of test that will be held once in
three months. The CPT will be one paper test in respect of which the first
session will be between 9.00 AM and 11.00 AM on Accountancy and
Mercantile Law and the second session between 12.30 PM and 2.30 PM on
General Economics and Quantitative Aptitude. The new curriculum is expected
to attract the cream of the younger generation as the prospect of becoming a
Chartered Accountant at the age of 21 years after passing 12th Standard and also
the bright career opportunities awaiting the boys and girls should prove to be
enticing for them to resist.
