Many senior chartered accountants and company secretaries are enrolled in various LawSikho courses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And I was curious to know about how they were actually utilising the LawSikho courses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was not possible to reach out to many of them due to paucity of time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

However, I managed to approach three of them. All of them are seasoned professionals and have been in the field for 10-15 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With that level of experience, people are easily able to distinguish the wheat from the chaff and they know if they are getting value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is what transpired:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I first reached out to CA Aditya Sesh, who is a Managing Director of Basiz Fund Private Limited, through which, for the first time in India, he implemented strategies relating to deploying Six Sigma and PERT \/ CPM in fund accounting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Basiz has qualified teams handling assignments relating to AUA over USD 18 bn and has processed more than 20000 financial statements and thousands of NAV processes of divergent nature. (Source: Basiz website<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On his website www.seshspeaks.com<\/a>, he also maintains a blog called Mind Speak, on which he writes about Economy and Commerce, Fine Arts & Culture and Governance & Public Policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He has enrolled in the Diploma in Advanced Contract Drafting, Negotiation and Dispute Resolution offered by LawSikho and here is what he has to say:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI have been negotiating contracts for close to 15 years and thought I will take up the Diploma in Advanced Contract Drafting course as a refresher. I believe that it is not necessary to be a lawyer to draft contracts and understand the law. Besides, even at a CFO level, I believe that it is essential for a CA to understand the structure of a contract, the law behind the contract and the nitty-gritties in order to be able to negotiate it. I found the course very useful and am happy with how it has been structured.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I approached another senior chartered accountant, CA Mehul Mehta, who has worked on international taxation, with KEC International Limited for over a period of 11 years and thereafter, as a Commercial Head for Australia, Africa, Jordan and Europe for Sterling and Wilson, a multinational EPC Contractor. He then moved to his current position as a Director, Commercial and Compliance for Knight Frank (India) Private Limited, a leading international property consulting company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He has extensive experience in the EPC sector. He is passionate about writing and has also authored a book titled \u2018Opportunities for CA \/ CS \/ CMA in EPC industry\u2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He has taken the Master Access Program (see what that is here<\/a>) with LawSikho and here is what he has to say about it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI took the LawSikho Master Access program not with a view to get any certification, but as a Library and learning resource, which is available to me anytime anywhere. It is very useful to me as a knowledge repository. For example, if I want to find some resources on intellectual property law or M&A, I can easily open the relevant course and find the details as well as learn the relevant topics. I had even suggested to juniors in my team, who are young lawyers \/ CA \/ CS \/ CMA, to enroll in LawSikho courses for up-skilling by way of getting industry oriented practical training, which prepares them for actual practice, and of course they also get industry recognised certification as well as  networking opportunities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also approached CS Hina Sadrani, a senior practising company secretary who has worked on the scope of audit, documentation etc. for the secretarial audit of large companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She is an ever-learning professional and actively participates in the activities of the Western India Regional Council of the Institute of Company Secretaries of India. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

She has taken the Master Access Program offered by LawSikho, and here is what she has to say:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“When I look at joining a particular course, what I look for is authenticity. I want to be able to get logical answers to my queries and I want to support and information when I am looking for it. The Master Access program not only allows me to get information when I want, but I have the support and the ability to brainstorm in the form of the faculty and students of the Master Access Program. This is how I find the program useful.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Students of <\/em>Lawsikho courses<\/em><\/a> regularly produce writing assignments and work on practical exercises as a part of their coursework and develop themselves in real-life practical skills.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
