Hello,

Basically my dear friend IAS is not a course it's a government job.

In order to become an IAS officer you need to write UPSC CS exam.

First you need to understand what IAS is all about.



What is Indian Administrative Service (IAS)?



IASis the short form ofIndian Administrative Service. It is one of the prestigiousservices among the 24 services like IPS, IFS etc for the which the UPSC conduct Civil Services Examination (CSE) for selecting the candidates. An officer selected into the Indian Administrative Service gets exposure in very diverse roles like the collector, commissioner, head of public sector units, chief secretary, cabinet secretary etc. Not only the experience and challenges but also the scope of making positive changes in the life of millions in India makes IAS a unique career choice.



How to become an IAS officer?



Even though the exam to be undertaken is popularly known as IAS exam, it is officially called UPSCCivil Services Exam. The UPSC CSE consists of 3 stages  Prelims, Mains, and Interview.Getting into Indian Administrative Service is not easy considering the competition involved, but not impossible for a candidate with right attitude and approach.

Civil Services Examination(CSE)



UPSC(Union Public Service Commission) is the government agency responsible for selecting the rightcandidatesfor this service. Every year only around 1000 candidates are selected for all the 24 services combined. The number ofcandidates who applied for UPSC Civil ServiceExam was about9 lakh in 2016, out of which around 4.5 lakh candidates appeared on the exam day.



I hope things are pretty clear to you.
