After clearing the UPSC Civil Services Exam, candidates undergo training at LBSNAA (Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration).
The Foundation Course lasts about 3–4 months, followed by specific service training (e.g., IAS, IPS) which can extend the total training to approximately 2 years.
The training includes academic sessions, physical training, field visits, and attachments with various government bodies.

Since their syllabus is heavily equipped with GK, Indian and world history, public policy, public administration, Indian and world politics, it'll be easier for you to strengthen your base.
