ICAI plans to become `virtual institute'

Our Bureau

CHENNAI, Feb. 15

INFORMATION Technology is high on the CA Institute's agenda for this year — look at it from any angle. Foremost of all, the institute aims to convert itself into a `virtual institution', whose services would be available to its members "at their doorstep".

This `virtualisation' of the country's premier accounting body will comprise essentially three elements — eRegulation, eLearning and eEducation.

All this may not happen this year, but work on this would be initiated in the coming 12 months, Mr R. Bupathy, the newly-elected President of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, said on Friday.

At a press conference here, he said the institute was in the process of developing an ERP package for its members and students.
