Hello,

Yes, joining NCC (National Cadet Corps) is a very good option for you, especially as a civil engineering diploma student. It helps build discipline, leadership, physical fitness, and teamwork skills, and also adds extra weightage if you plan to appear for defense, government, or PSU jobs later.

Since your college doesn’t have an NCC unit, don’t worry, you can still join as an open candidate . Here’s what you can do:

1. Visit the nearest college or institution that has an NCC unit (Army, Navy, or Air Wing).

2. Meet the NCC Officer (ANO) or visit the nearest NCC Battalion headquarters in your district.

3. Ask to register as an open cadet under that unit.

4. Submit your 10th marksheet, ID proof, and medical certificate if required.

So yes, joining NCC is definitely worth it. You just need to apply through a nearby college or NCC battalion office since your own college doesn’t have it.

Hope you understand.

The Civil Services Examination is conducted by the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) to recruit officers for services like IAS, IPS, and IFS. It is a national-level exam held every year.

To apply, you must have a bachelor’s degree from a recognized university and meet the age and nationality conditions mentioned in the UPSC rules. The exam has three stages – the Preliminary exam, the Main exam, and the Interview.

If you score high and get selected for IPS, you will be trained at the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel National Police Academy before your posting.
