Dear Officer Trainee,
The Director of the Academy and the Course Team of the 89th Foundation Course extend a warm welcome
to you. Your entry to the serene environs of the Academy in Mussoorie marks the culmination of the long
and arduous journey that you have taken to clear the Civil Services examination. We at the Academy
congratulate you on your achievement.
As one phase of your life ends, you enter into another at the Academy from today. The Foundation
Course marks the beginning of a new journey for you in the service of this great nation. A new sense of
responsibility will be placed on your shoulders from now onwards. The Foundation Course seeks to usher
you into this new reality and aims to lay a strong foundation to enable you to tackle the challenges that lie
ahead.
The Foundation Course is one of the most memorable periods in the lives of Civil Servants. For one, it
celebrates your first brush with life in the Civil Services. But more importantly, officers remember with
great nostalgia the time spent in the Academy, in company of a new group of people who became their
life-long friends. The beautiful surroundings of Mussoorie add a sense of joy and mystique to the overall
training experience.
The Course would combine formal classroom teaching on a variety of subjects and several extra-curricular
activities, details of which are available further ahead in this manual. Initially, you may face a time
constraint in meeting stringent academic deadlines and participating in various activities associated with
the course. However, you will soon find yourself geared to achieving far more than you thought yourself
capable of. It is an early lesson in always striving to do more and to do it better. To sum it up in Mahatma
Gandhis words, Whatever you do may seem insignificant, but it is most important that you do it.
The Academy and the Course Team would endeavour to make your Course experience most stimulating,
joyful and memorable. We, in turn expect you to be a keen learner and an active participant. We are
confident that you would imbibe the core values of the Civil Services and set new benchmarks through
your demeanour and conduct.
We would urge you to go through the Course Manual in order to familiarize yourself with the broad
outlines of the course and the expectations of the Academy from you. We wish you good luck as you
embark on this journey to discover the various facets of life of a Civil Servant.
BEST WISHES
(Saurabh Jain) (Dr. Prem Singh) (Nidhi Sharma) (Abhishek Swami) (Manashvi Kumar)

COURSE OBJECTIVES
Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high,
Where knowledge is free,
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls,
Where words come out from the depth of truth,
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection,
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost it way into the dreary desert sand of
dead habit,
Where the mind lead forward by thee into ever-widening thought and action,
Into that heaven of freedom, my father, let my country awake.
