AI enablement for schools, colleges and universities.
AST — AI Skills & Training — gives institutions the labs, the curriculum and the trained teachers to teach AI properly. And we practise what we teach: Intellistudio, our AI platform, runs inside manufacturers, and we bring global capability centres to Punjab.

Schools, colleges and universities
Three kinds of institution, three different problems. Each gets a model built for it — delivered by people who use these tools for a living.
AI Campus-in-a-Box
The lab, the curriculum and the trained teachers as one package. Meet the 2026–27 mandate properly, not on paper.
- Lab specified, installed and run on our platform
- Grade-wise curriculum mapped to the CBSE framework
- Teachers trained, certified and supported in class
AI & blockchain, for credit
Credit-bearing courses inside your degree and diploma programs under NEP 2020, with your faculty trained alongside.
- Mapped to your credit and semester structure
- Blockchain, applied AI and data skills, hands-on
- Students assessed on what they built
Centre for Applied AI
An industry-grade AI centre on your campus, badged with your institution and run on our curriculum and platform.
- Co-branded centre with applied electives and capstones
- Faculty development and train-the-trainer tracks
- Industry projects — including on Intellistudio
Every program runs on
- Curriculum updated as the tools change
- Teachers trained until they can run it alone
- Labs specified for real use, at tier-2 cost
- Portfolios of built work, not just marks
- Mandate-aligned by design
- English, Hindi and Punjabi
We don't only teach AI. We run it inside factories.
Intellistudio is our AI company brain for manufacturers. It connects to the systems a plant already runs, learns how the business works, and takes over the repetitive work people do by hand every day.
It is deployed with manufacturers today — and every deployment feeds straight back into what we teach.
A plant with 10 people on manual office work
Each spends 15 hours a week on data entry, reports and follow-ups. The plant bills ₹50 lakh a month.

We bring global capability centres to Punjab.
The talent was never the problem. Punjab produces builders — and for decades they have left the state to find this work. We bring the work here instead.
We build capability centres for global companies, staff them from the campuses we already teach on, and hand them over running.
Feasibility, location and hiring plan — and a team recruited and trained on your stack before day one.
We run the centre alongside your managers until it delivers on its own.
Team, processes and leadership handed to you on a date agreed up front.
Not ready for a full centre? Start with a pilot pod, or a hire–train–deploy batch into your existing one.
What we are running right now
Not a roadmap. These are programs currently being delivered, with named people accountable for them.
Blockchain course at Atria University
A full blockchain course delivered under the National Education Policy at Atria University, Bengaluru — credit-bearing, hands-on, and taught by practitioners rather than from a textbook. Students work through the stack from first principles to deployed contracts.
- Credit-bearing course delivered within the NEP framework
- Fundamentals through to smart contracts and deployment
- Project-assessed — students leave with work they built
- Faculty involved throughout, not handed a recording
Sessions we have already delivered
Teacher training, faculty development and student workshops across campuses in Punjab, Haryana and beyond.
AI careers and the NASSCOM FutureSkills platform
Gulzar Group of Institutes
A session for students on where AI is taking the jobs they are training for — with a walkthrough of the NASSCOM FutureSkills platform, so they leave knowing exactly where to start building certified skills.
The people we take counsel from
Academics and practitioners who have built programs, run departments and taught the students we are building this for.

Where our work shows up
Our founder, Harman Puri, has spent the last several years teaching this material and talking about it publicly — on television, on stage, on campuses and in print.
Credentials that travel
Learning is only half of it. What a student can show afterwards is what changes their options.
- NASSCOM certification pathway for select programs, under a signed memorandum of understanding
- Co-branded certificates with partner universities for campus centres
- A public project portfolio for every graduate, not just a certificate PDF
- Assessment records schools can produce for inspection and reporting

Frequently asked
Do we need existing computer labs to start?
No. We assess what you have and specify the smallest viable setup that will actually support the curriculum. Many schools start with a single room and expand once teachers are confident.
Who teaches the classes — your staff or ours?
Both models exist. For schools we usually train your own teachers and certify them, with our support in the classroom during the first term. For college and university programs, an AST trainer leads the course while your faculty are trained alongside — as we do on the blockchain course at Atria University.
What is Intellistudio, and who is it for?
Our AI platform for manufacturers. It connects to the systems you already use and automates the repetitive work across production, sales, procurement, finance and billing. It works alongside your existing software rather than replacing it. See how it works →
Can you help us open a centre in Punjab?
Yes — that is what our GCC practice does, usually on a build–operate–transfer basis, or as a smaller pilot pod first. How a Punjab GCC works →
What does it cost?
It depends on what you need — an education program, an Intellistudio deployment or a capability centre — and on what already exists. Tell us where you are and we will send a written proposal with the full breakdown.
How does the NASSCOM certification work?
NASSCOM issues certificates in select areas under a prior agreement. Which of your programs qualify is confirmed in writing before enrolment opens, so nobody is promised a credential that has not been signed off.
Punjab's next decade gets built in its classrooms — and its factories.
Tell us who you are — a school, a college, a university, a manufacturer or a company looking at Punjab — and we will tell you exactly what the first ninety days look like.
