A Company Secretary is the person who is in charge of a company’s administration, including maintaining compliance with statutory and regulatory requirements and carrying out the board of directors’ decisions. Company Secretaries hold an authoritative position, which allows for more possibilities and space for ideas and opinions to be expressed. The job profile for a CS would be as Legal Advisor, Corporate Policymaker, Corporate Planner, Chief Administrative Officer, etc. To become a Company Secretary, one has to complete the professional course and pass the exams by ICSI.
ICSI or the Institute of Company Secretaries of India, which is owned by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs of the Indian government, is the regulatory body for conducting CS exams in India. Its mission is to promote, regulate, and grow the profession of company secretaries in India.
This is a 3 years professional course equivalent to the undergraduate degree. Although, the course is split into 3 parts- CSEET course which is 8 months long, intermediate or executive course which is 9 months long and, final or professional course which is 15 months long
