Mumbai, December 28, 2012: Aptech, the global leader in training & learning services, is conducting the Common Management Admission Test (CMAT) mandated by The All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) for the third time. The registrations commenced on November 1, 2012 and will close on January 2, 2013.

With the rise in the number of centres from the first season, CMAT has witnessed great success so far as online testing has gained tremendous traction in the recent past. The students derive a tremendous benefit from online testing as it is easier to attempt, less of a logistical exercise, the results are quick and overall it gets rid of duplication of efforts by them. They can apply to multiple colleges with just one test.

Mr. SS Mantha, Chairman, AICTE said, “This format allows students to save time, energy and money by institutionalizing online testing. This also saves hassles for the colleges by facilitating one time testing for various colleges put together. We are happy to innovate from the conventional pattern of such examinations and drive it successfully.”

Commenting on the initiative, Aptech CEO & MD, Mr Ninad Karpe said, “We have been successful in conducting a glitch free examination for the last two seasons and are confident that the upcoming test would be similar. We take maximum effort to ensure the online testing right from the registration to the attempt and the results are done in a cohesive manner. Technology is a vital part of the whole spectrum and our processes give us an added edge.”
