Now Army TES Entry Training Period will be 4 Year instead of 5 Year.

TES (Technical Entry Scheme) is a scheme of entry into the Indian Army for candidates who have completed their 10+2 or equivalent examination with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics as main subjects. The TES scheme allows candidates to join the Army directly after completing their 10+2 education, and they can pursue a career as an officer in the Indian Army. Now Army TES entry training period will be 4 year instead of 5 year. By adopting a four-year training model, the Indian Army aims to extend the service period of its young officers, thereby enabling them to serve their country for an additional year.

Army TES Entry Training Period Changed:-

As per the recent announcement, the Indian Army has opted for a (3+1) four-year model for its entry-level officers who join through the Indian Army Technical Entry Scheme (TES). Under this model, the initial three years of training will emphasize technical training, provided at the Cadet Training Wings (CTWs), followed by a year of basic military training at the Indian Military Academy (IMA) in Dehradun, as per a statement released by officials.

Benefits of changing TES Training Period:-

The provision of a common basic military training (BMT) at IMA in the final year of the four-year training model is expected to address the issue of common merit while also fostering better camaraderie among TES officers and IMA GCs (ex NDA/ ACC/ DE Course).

The approval for counting the credits earned by officers during their training at CTWs and IMA towards accreditation for a B.Tech degree has been granted by both the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) and All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) in March 2023.

To be eligible for this entry, candidates must have successfully cleared the 10+2 examination or an equivalent qualification with a minimum aggregate of 60% marks in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics from recognized education boards.
