Education is the process of facilitating learning, or the acquisition of knowledge, skills, values, beliefs, and habits. It is the process of acquiring the body of knowledge and skills that people are expected to have in our society. A good education develops a critical thought process in addition to learning accepted facts. It also encourages intellectual curiosity, which will lead to lifelong learning. Education gives us knowledge of the world around us and changes it into something better. It develops in us a perspective of looking at life. It helps us build opinions and have points of view on things in life.

The purpose of education is to develop students' desire and ability to think and learn about the world around them. Further, the purpose is to learn how to develop relationships that will enable students to work with their peers, throughout their educational career and beyond. It is necessary to open up the mind of students and prepare them to face the world rather than thinking education as getting a degree from a reputed university/professional institute and landing on a high paying job.

The students generally go for higher education after completing the formal academic courses in order to pursue their professional career. They take up professional education for this purpose. Professional education provides them the edge, perfection and required expertise through extensive knowledge and practical guides. However, their professional education and career cannot be effective and successful to the desired level without giving due regard to the formal basic education. It is because of the fact that we consider the basic education as the foundation of a student’s knowledge and wisdom, and the professional education as the pillar erected on that foundation. Therefore, the formal basic education has to be strong enough to hold a firm grip on the professional education as the pillar.

This is a long form text area designed for your content that you can fill up with as many words as your heart desires. You can write articles, long mission statements, company policies, executive profiles, company awards/distinctions, office locations, shareholder reports, whitepapers, media mentions and other pieces of content that don’t fit into a shorter, more succinct space.

Articles – Good topics for articles include anything related to your company – recent changes to operations, the latest company softball game – or the industry you’re in. General business trends (think national and even international) are great article fodder, too.

Mission statements – You can tell a lot about a company by its mission statement. Don’t have one? Now might be a good time to create one and post it here. A good mission statement tells you what drives a company to do what it does.

Company policies – Are there company policies that are particularly important to your business? Perhaps your unlimited paternity/maternity leave policy has endeared you to employees across the company. This is a good place to talk about that.

Executive profiles – A company is only as strong as its executive leadership. This is a good place to show off who’s occupying the corner offices. Write a nice bio about each executive that includes what they do, how long they’ve been at it, and what got them to where they are.

The Institute of Company Secretaries of India (ICSI) has introduced a major change in the curriculum of ICSI CS programme. The institute has discontinued the CS Foundation programme. 

The programme has been replaced with CS Executive Entrance Test (CSEET). Now, CSEET will be a mandatory qualifying test for registration to Executive Programme for all categories of students. However, exemption has been given to few categories.

The existing Foundation programme students will be allowed to appear in the exam till the expiry of the validity of their registration. Such students after passing the Foundation programme may register for Executive programme as per the existing process.

Graduate or postgraduate candidates who were other-wise eligible to seek registration directly to the Executive programme will also have to qualify the CSEET to become eligible for registration to the Programme.

The new curriculum was proposed by ICSI in September which is implemented this year. The aim is to ensure students have the requisite level of aptitude and skills to become successful professionals.

Candidates, who have completed 12th standard, will be eligible to take ICSI CSEET exam. The following categories of students will be exempted from qualifying CSEET and can seek registration directly to Executive Programme.

• CS Foundation Programme passed students
• ICAI (The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India) Final Course passed students
• ICMAI (The Institute of Cost Accountants of India) Final Course passed students

The CSEET will be an online Computer-based Test. The test will comprise Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs), audio clips, video clips, and descriptive questions. The duration of CSEET will be135 minutes (120 Minutes for MCQ test and 15 minutes for Viva-Voce). There is no negative marking.  The following subjects will be covered under CSEET. 

• Paper 1: Business Communication
• Paper 2: Legal Aptitude & Logical Reasoning
• Paper 3: Economic and Business Environment
• Paper 4: Current Affairs, Presentation and Communication Skills

Candidates need to secure an aggregate of 50% and 40% in each subject in CSEET.

The provisional registration to Executive Programme is discontinued. ICSI has introduced ‘Continuation of Registration’ according to which the students are required to keep their registration renewed from time to time even after passing Professional Programme. The fee for this is Rs 1000 per year.
