What do u think abt the duration of articleship..??

Is 3 yrs for pe2 and 3 & 1/2 yrs for pcc really worth it..??

According to me... 2 yrs or even less articleship is enough for a student to learn wht he needs to learn in their articleship...

Students loose interest at the end and are completing it just for the sake of it....

Wht are ur views abt this... Should ICAI reduce the period of articleship

but considering the amount of stipend paid to students... 3 yrs is a long time to stay on a very less stipend..

many students are facing problems because of it...

But ravi learning in our profession goes on and on. it may take our whole life to learn. this doesnt mean we get so long period of articleship.

3.5 years is too much for ca in industry

but way too less for ca who wanna practice.

Coz generally in industry fresh ca has to go through training and all that for the specific process that he will undertake, but practice requires a seasoned professional and i dont think 3.5 years is enough coz it ttakes almost 8-10 months to understand actually whats going on and then we start practicing.
