Hello

NCC is not a degree but an extracurricular program available alongside school or college education . To join, enroll in a college with an NCC unit, meet the age criteria 13–26 years and clear the selection process.

It offers military training, leadership skills and career benefits, specially for defense and government jobs.

Hope this helps you .

Thank you

Yes, you can definitely join the NCC while pursuing your degree. Many colleges offer NCC programs, and you can enroll alongside your academic studies.

You’ll need to check with your college about the availability of NCC units and understand the time commitment for activities like parades and training. It’s a great opportunity to develop leadership skills and gain valuable experience while studying.

Hi Laksmi Prasanna Gunji,

Good to hear that you are interested in participating into NCC. You can definitely practice NCC while you do your degree in the college. See every college/University has its own rules and regulations regarding enrollment into NCC program. So, you have to be vigilant about the enrollment process schedule, process and formalities.  You may also be asked to go through the physical fitness examination. These processes generally happen as soon as you start your degree in a college. So be careful about the selection procedure. All the best!

Having an NCC certificate can definitely add some value to your resume/CV.
