The National Skill Development Corporation on Sunday launched a nationwide cloud and AI skilling initiative to equip 1.5 lakh learners with foundational Artificial Intelligence and cloud literacy through Amazon Web Services digital training content.
The initiative will also provide job-ready training to 10,000 participants through the AWS re/start programme.
The National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC), under the Ministry of Skill Development & Entrepreneurship, and Cultus Education announced the launch of the cloud and AI skilling initiative in collaboration with Amazon Web Services.
"The initiative is designed to create meaningful social and economic impact by expanding access to high-quality technology training and employment opportunities for youth across India, particularly in underserved and emerging talent hubs," an official statement said.
Through its 100% online delivery model, learners from Tier II and Tier III cities can access training without relocating to metropolitan centres, creating pathways from foundational digital literacy to globally recognised credentials and employment opportunities, it added.
