	I am appearing in CS executive in June 2011. I have confusion with regards to SIP.I was registered with ICSI in 2001 and as per info pasted below, is it necessary for me to go for SIP or not? Its compulsory for CS EXECUTIVE PROGRAMME STUDENTS registered after 01.09.2009 Student Induction Programme (SIP) - Duration - 7 days, to be completed by the students within 6 months of registration to the Executive Programme (Intermediate Exams ) covering the following areas:-   1.  English Speaking Skills. 2.  Personality Development and Life Skills – Basic Concepts. 3.  Introduction to Course Contents, Electives and Opportunities both in practice and employment. 4. Communication Skills, Writing ability-drafting                   etc. 5. Usefulness of Reading Newspaper 6. SWOT Analysis 7. Computer Literacy (Basics) 8. Know your Institute

please read highlighted word........................it is applicable who have registered after 1/9/2009......

Thanks Rameshji and Tehsinkhanji....

The confusion is that I was originally registered in 2001 which was about to expire in 2011. So i got denovo registraion in 2010. Now question  is whether ICSI would treat Denovo registration equivalent to fresh registration for the purpose of SIP training....

Also pls throw some light on Info Tech trg also on similar lines.
