Nature/structure of the training program (Module)

UPSC/MPSC Coaching Programmes

The centre coaches the UPSC and MPSC aspirants for the preliminary and subsequent Mains examinations. During the first phase of the coaching, CSAT and GS classes are administered to the students alongside Mains preparations (MPSC and UPSC aspirants are separately trained).
A daily 2–4 hour intensive class is provided to the students. These class lectures are delivered by the in-house faculty of the center, as well as faculties from various SPPU departments, field experts, and serving and retired civil servants.
Apart from the intensive daily 2 to 4 hours class teaching, test series are conducted from time to time to evaluate the progress of the students and let the students be aware of their position in their endeavours.
Special batches are conducted for the Mains Examination for the Successful students.
After the students' success in the UPSC/MPSC preliminary exam, the centre provides them further guidance and prepares them for the Mains examination.
Mock interviews are also conducted for the Mains Examination qualified students. After the students get through Mains exam, the centre also conducts mock interviews for the students which the panel members consist of important personalities such as senior professors, psychologists, retirees, serving civil servants, etc.
We conduct seminars, workshops, quizzes, debates, conferences, and other events with a special focus on meeting the students' timely needs at each stage of their progress and process. Through this, students can equip themselves in many areas for which they were not prepared.
