The Government of India has launched a free national online course titled ‘YUVA AI for ALL’ to help citizens—especially students and young professionals—gain essential knowledge about Artificial Intelligence. Introduced by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) under the IndiaAI Mission, the programme aims to equip 10 million learners across the country with foundational AI skills.
According to the official press release, the self-paced course spans 4.5 hours and is designed for school and college students, educators, professionals, and anyone keen to understand AI fundamentals. The course is hosted on popular learning platforms including FutureSkills Prime, iGOT Karmayogi, and other leading ed-tech portals.

Designed by Jaspreet Bindra, Founder of AI and Beyond and Tech Whisperer Ltd., the course blends global concepts with India-specific real-life examples, ensuring that learners connect easily with how AI is transforming everyday life, industries, governance, and public services. The programme emphasises ethical, responsible, and inclusive use of AI, aligning with IndiaAI’s broader vision to build a digitally empowered society.
The government has also called upon schools, universities, institutions, and organisations to partner with IndiaAI to broaden the reach of the initiative. Partners may integrate the course into their curriculum or training modules, promote it among learners, and even co-brand certificates for participants.
