CA ++ (CA. + 12th) Opportunity at
your doorstep :
To crack the tough and grueling C.A. Course prepared by
The Institute of Chartered Accountancy of India, New
Delhi, students have always preferred to join Zaware’s
Professional Academy (ZPA), the Pioneer Institute
creating successful Chartered Accountants for the past
40 years.
Entry to the C.A. Course is now after 10th standard, but
students can appear for the first entry level examination
of the C.A. Course, Common Proficiency Test (CPT),
only after appearing for the 10+2 examination. This has
changed many equations, and students now have to
prepare for both 12th Standard and CPT simultaneously.

80. CPT
CA ++ (CA. + 12th) Opportunity at
your doorstep :
Considering these numerous difficulties of the students
about the clashes in timing of lectures, tests and the
other activities, ZPA has decided to promulgate a system
in which all the academic problems of the students will be
solved.
The main aim of the new system developed by ZPA is to
offer the students Best coaching services and flexible
batch schedules for pursuing CPT along with 12th
standard studies.
