Subject: APAR-linked mandatory course completion on the iGOT Karmayogi Portal-reg.

This is in reference to your Federation letter no. FNPO/i-GOT Karmayogi/Training dated 11.02.2026 regarding the iGOT Karmayogi Training. The matter has been examined in detail with reference to the directions issued by the Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT).

The DoPT has introduced APAR-linked Mandatory Courses and the Comprehensive Assessment on the iGOT Portal for all Central Govt. Employees vide OM dated 04.07.2025 (copy enclosed) under the National Programme for Civil Services Capacity Building (NPCSCB)- Mission Karmayogi. In compliance with the aforesaid directions, this Department issued OM dated 18.08.2025 (copy enclosed) mandating six APAR-linked courses, being the minimum prescribed by DoPT. The said courses are required to be completed by 31.03.2026, thereby providing sufficient time to the officials for completion of the same.

The iGOT Karmayogi Portal is a role-based digital learning platform aimed at building a citizen-centric and future-ready civil service through competency-driven capacity building. It facilitates anytime, anywhere learning across domain, behavioural, and functional competencies. As course access, progression, assessment, and certification are linked to individual login credentials, the completion of courses is inherently individual-specific.

In view of the Portal’s user-specific course delivery and certification framework, the courses are required to be undertaken individually through respective logins and are not structured for collective offline conduct at the Divisional level.

This has the approval of the competent authority.
