Hi Everyone,

I'm new to this Caclubindia, I have completed graduation in commerce and post graduation (MBA) in finance. Now I'm interested to do CA, I have read that, for direct entry to CAinter Articleship is must. I'm having 2.3 years of experience into Financial reporting. Whether this experience will be considered for articleship ? or I must do an articleship.

People have to apologize me for my zero knowledge on starting a career with CA and help me out.

Thanks,

Sathish Kumar P

- In CA course, prior work experience does not count whatsoever.
.
- Articled training is a must for each and every candidate.
.
- Only CS and Cost Institute recognize prior work experience for training exemption.

1. Commerce Graduates/Post-Graduates with minimum 55% or 54.5% marks can register directly for CA-Inter.
.
2. After completion of 9 months of articleship, you will be eligible to appear for the exams. But, to start the articleship, first you need to complete IT Training and Orientation Course.

3. To get an overview of the course structure, download the attached file.
