Certification changes outcomes
For students, it's a credential that opens doors. For institutions, it's a quality mark that builds reputation. For employers, it's a signal that graduates are ready.
For Students
A verifiable AI credential that proves skills — not just attendance. Recognized by employers, designed for co-certification with leading industry partners, and mapped to industry skill frameworks.
For Institutions
A quality designation that differentiates your school or college. Use in NAAC/NBA accreditation, parent communications, marketing, and student recruitment.
For Employers
A clear signal that candidates have hands-on AI skills. Assessment-based, not attendance-based. Mapped to NSDC Qualification Packs and industry competency frameworks.
Four levels for every learner
Each certification is earned through assessment — not participation. Students must demonstrate real skills through projects, exams, and portfolios.
RDP AI Explorer
Foundational awareness of AI concepts, computational thinking, and hands-on experience building simple AI projects using visual tools. This is where 100 million students begin their AI journey.
RDP AI Practitioner
Demonstrated ability to build basic AI/ML models using Python, work with real datasets, apply computer vision and NLP techniques, and complete an end-to-end AI capstone project from problem identification to working demo.
RDP AI Professional
Advanced skills in deep learning, generative AI, MLOps, and model deployment on GPU infrastructure. Validated through proctored examination, a substantial research project, and viva voce — the highest level of AI VIDYA student certification.
RDP AI Skills Ready
Validated proficiency in digital literacy, AI tools for trades, data handling, workflow automation, and AI-powered productivity. Practical assessment-based — students demonstrate real trade-applicable skills, not memorised theory.
