How to Apply

Registration Norms
A system of registration of candidates has been evolved to monitor the growth of the skills at the various Levels and ensure planning of IT manpower. Candidates get a unique identification number under the system. Registration is a pre-requisite for appearing in a DOEACC O/A/B/C Level examination. Candidates should apply for registration in the prescribed form, which is attached at the end. Registration is only for candidates and not for institutes. Registration forms are available from the DOEACC Society free of cost and can be obtained either in person or through post. Clear photocopies of the registration form at the end may be made use of by candidates for applying for registration. Essentially a candidate can register at only one Level at a time and appearing for an examination, at any other Level, is not permitted. Registration, by itself, does not entitle a candidate to appear for an examination at the Level concerned, unless all conditions, stipulated in the examination application form, and in any other notification, relevant to the examination are fulfilled by the candidate. Application forms for examinations are different from Registration forms. Registration number is also different from Roll Number of a candidate, for examination. While applying for registration, the registration form duly filled in should be sent to the DOEACC Society with a photograph affixed thereon attested by a Gazetted Officer/Panchayat/Bank Officer/Centre Manager of the institute where the candidate has undergone the accredited course. An attested photocopy of the certificate of highest educational qualification attained by the candidate should be attached. The registration fee for the Level should also be sent
The Registration fee (w.e.f  01-Jan-2010)
O Level	Rs. 2500/-
Fee includes a copy of the Student Guide and List of Institutes conducting Accredited courses, which will be sent to the candidate along with Registration Allocation letter and DOEACC News letters which will be sent to each candidate for one year after his/her Registration. Instructions to applicants given in the Registration form should be strictly adhered to while sending the Registration form. The DOEACC Society at New Delhi is the authority for registration for all Levels. Registration is open throughout the year. However, cut-off dates have been prescribed for receipt of completed registration forms.   The current schedule of dates are:
Level Cut of Dates   January Exams July Exams O Level Preceding 30th June Preceding 31st December A/B/C Levels Preceding 31st July Preceding 31st January
Candidates will not be eligible for appearing in the relevant examination if their registration forms are received after the stipulated date, except in the specific cases as may be notified by DOEACC from time to time. Students from institutes running accredited courses can straightaway fill in examination application forms of next higher Levels for the next examination giving their old registration numbers and paying the registration fees for the level applying for. The registration fees would be in addition to the requisite amount of examination fee and postal charge. In such an event, if the student has cleared all modules/papers of a particular Level, he/she would be considered for next higher Level and his/her registration would get upgraded. This facility would be available only to the students taking the examinations through institutes running accredited courses. With a view to assist students who wish to pursue B Level course immediately after graduation and in view of the delay in the announcement of University results, filled application forms for registration at B Level will be accepted by the DOEACC Society up to 14th August for the January examination subject to the conditions that:- a) the application forms for registration complete in all respects are sent in bulk separately for B Level by the institute, addressed to Joint Manager (Admn.), DOEACC Society, Electronics Niketan, 6 CGO Complex, New Delhi 110 003. b) the envelope containing such application forms are superscribed with a statement “REGISTRATION FORMS FOR “B” LEVEL FOR JANUARY... (YEAR) EXAMINATION” and c) such application forms are sent either through speed post or through courier only. Registration forms of newly admitted students to accredited courses of institutes will be accepted by the DOEACC Society up to one month beyond the normal cut off dates specified, provided such forms are duly sponsored by institutes conducting accredited courses and supported by a soft file containing the data pertaining to the applications in the data structure provided by DOEACC Society. Once registered at a particular Level, the registration is valid for ten consecutive examinations for O/A Levels and twelve consecutive examinations for B/C Levels, reckoned from the next eligible examination as indicated in the letter of allotment of registration number to the candidate. It is advisable that candidates register themselves as early as possible without waiting for the cut-off date. If a candidate qualifies at the lower Level and wishes to continue in the Scheme, he must register at the next Higher Level. In such a case, he / she needs to pay the registration fee for that particular Level. A candidate registered at one Level, intending to register at another Level, without clearing all modules/papers of the former Level, will have to remit the fees for the latter Level along with a registration form duly filled in. In case a candidate qualifies in certain modules/papers at a Level and appears for the remaining modules/papers at that Level, and pending the announcement of results, registers at a higher Level, in anticipation of passing the lower Level, the candidate will forfeit the chances of appearing in the modules/papers in which the candidate is unsuccessful at the lower Level. Candidates should invariably inform the DOEACC Society in case there is a change of address, as communications to the candidates will be to their addresses given in the Registration form. Personal addresses may be given instead of c/o Institutions
