Salary / Pay
CCC is a certificate course, not a paid job, so there is no salary or pay scale. On passing you receive a NIELIT CCC certificate that is widely accepted as proof of basic computer proficiency for government jobs, promotions and further studies. Treat the certificate itself as the outcome rather than any pay figure.
Selection Process
Selection is by qualifying the CCC online examination. The course covers 80 hours of learning (30 hours theory + 60 hours practical) on document preparation, internet, email, presentations and digital services. The exam is an objective-type online test and results are graded; you must secure the minimum qualifying marks to earn the certificate (grade/marks scheme is as per the NIELIT CCC rules — indicative, confirm on the notification). Admit card is issued before the exam and the certificate can be downloaded about one month after the result.
