If you're one of the lucky ones who actually gets to choose between multiple projects, it might be better to choose the longer ones, since you generally want to avoid being benched.
I don't know if there even is an average project duration since ACCN has a shyt ton of clients. Some implementation projects can last as short as 3 months, while others with operational roles have no fixed end date as far as I know. I

Hello! You seem to know quite a fair bit. Do you know what new analysts under change management pod does? Heard there’s no training for new joiners. So in this case how do you know you’re actually doing “real work” and not just some side job the senior staffs don’t want to do?

I've not heard of such a pod. But change management is simultaneously specific and broad at the same time. What kind of change would you even be a part of? Many different teams are usually part of any one change so it really varies. Of course, it also depends on the project that you're assigned to. And also, are you going to be tied solely to change management? It's hard to say.
One thing many new employees need to understand, and it's even written in the contract, is that you are expected to be flexible in your role and the work that you will perform. This has its pros and cons, in that you can potentially learn a lot from many different fields, but also that you sometimes have little choice but to accept roles that you aren't necessarily interested in.
As for training, again, it's very dependent on the project and who you work with. Some analysts get great support from their teams, while others get pulled into a project to take over from someone who wants to gtfo. And because of that, the person you're supposed to be taking over can be bochup and not bother giving you sufficient training at all since you're not going to be their problem once they roll off.
As for whether or not you'll be taking a role no one wants, well, you'll have to try and talk to other people on the same project and find out more.
Remember, at the end of the day as a consultant, you're working for the client. Someone in a government project is not necessarily going to have a same experience as say, someone who's a part of a project for an oil and gas company.
There is no straight answer for how your experience will be. I mean, my experience sucked, but I just spoke to someone who's still there doing UX, and they tell me they have the best work life balance because their client is based in the US.

I think the op is referring to the change management pod under the talent advancement programme… it’s one of the 6 pods. Not sure when was this introduced but last year and this year have.
