India's AI-powered skill training platform, built on NSDC/NSQF
Built for PMKVY. Aligned to NSQF.
Why Kaushalam exists — the accountability gap
The December 2025 CAG audit of PMKVY surfaced systemic issues that every stakeholder now has to solve.
- 41% placement rate against the scheme's own targets
- 95% of candidate records on the Skill India Portal were found invalid or incomplete
- Fake training centres and ghost candidates detected in multiple states
The ecosystem by the numbers
Public figures published by MSDE, NSDC, and NCVET — the reality Kaushalam operates within.
The ecosystem we sit inside
India's skill ecosystem has five statutory layers. Kaushalam augments the last mile — where candidates actually learn.

How a Training Partner uses Kaushalam
1 — Sign up
Continue with Google, complete a short onboarding form with your NSDC TP code, and your account is live. No DLT, no paperwork.
2 — Create batches
Pick any Qualification Pack from the library, set start/end and assessment dates, and bulk-enrol candidates via Gmail addresses.
3 — Deliver learning
Candidates open the AI tutor in their own language, run mock assessments per NOS, and track their own readiness. You do nothing manually.
4 — Watch the analytics
A live dashboard shows active learners, average readiness, pass rate, voice-session percentage, and flags at-risk candidates — all derived from real usage, not self-reports.
Four pillars of the Kaushalam platform
NOS-mapped learning
Every lesson, every reference, every assessment question is anchored to a specific National Occupational Standard within the candidate's Qualification Pack. No off-curriculum content. No "fun but irrelevant" filler.
Voice-first in three languages
Hold-to-speak voice input, real-time transcription, and spoken AI responses in the candidate's own language. They can learn end-to-end without typing a single character.
Bol ke Seekho.
Speak in your language. Learn in your language.
- Real-time speech transcription powered by India-sovereign AI.
- AI responds in text and voice simultaneously.
- Hindi, Tamil, English — switch mid-conversation.
- Embedded videos and resources inline in the chat.
Powered by AI.
Sector Skill Councils in our content library
38 industry-led bodies that author the QPs Kaushalam imports verbatim.
Imported verbatim. Each council authors the Qualification Packs and National Occupational Standards Kaushalam runs against.
Data integrity by design
Every architectural decision reinforces that what the dashboard shows actually happened.
Once recorded, never rewritten
Time on the platform, every conversation with the AI tutor, every assessment attempt — written once, then locked. There is no edit button. There is no admin override. Even we cannot change what a candidate did yesterday.
Each person sees only what's theirs
Candidates see only their own learning history. Training Partners see only the candidates they enrolled. Platform-wide views are aggregates only. Cross-organisation leakage is impossible — enforced at the data layer, not by polite convention.
No fabricated activity
Sessions are timed by the candidate's own device, in real time, and closed automatically when they leave the screen. There is no way for a TP — or anyone else — to retroactively "add" learning hours that did not happen.
