Simplilearn Launches AI Accelerator Program to Take Learners From Simple Prompting to Shipping Real AI Products in Eight Weeks

New eight-week program enables learners to move from AI fundamentals to building and deploying real-world AI applications and automations

Bangalore, India, June 25 2026: Simplilearn, a global leader in digital upskilling, today announced the launch of an AI Accelerator Program — From Prompts to Agentic Workflows, an eight-week training program designed to help learners build practical AI capabilities, delivered through blended learning, combining live-virtual classes with online self-paced learning across 60+ hours of training, preparing for emerging opportunities in an ever-evolving AI economy.

India is facing a significant AI talent gap. With 2.3 million AI job openings expected by 2027 and only 1.2 million professionals trained to fill them, the demand for practical AI skills has never been greater. AI-skilled roles in India currently pay up to 60% more than non-AI tech roles. According to Nasscom, 86% of Indian employers are converting traditional roles into AI jobs. The industry estimates indicate that India could face a significant shortage of AI talent over the next few years, creating a pressing need for workforce-ready training that goes beyond foundational AI awareness and focuses on hands-on application.

The AI Accelerator Program is Simplilearn’s response to this gap, a structured curriculum built around the tools and skills that industry is actively hiring for, delivered in a format designed to build genuine capability rather than surface-level familiarity.

Most beginner AI programs stop at tool recognition, prompting, or basic AI concepts. The AI Accelerator Program goes significantly further. The curriculum progresses from programming logic and Python foundations through AI literacy, prompt engineering, AI-assisted coding, app development with RAG and LangChain, vibe coding, workflow automation using n8n, and introductory agentic AI design. Learners will gain hands-on experience across the full AI builder stack. The program culminates in a capstone where learners build and ship a real AI product they can present and include in their portfolio.

Speaking about the program, Mr. Kashyap Dalal, Cofounder and COO of Simplilearn, said, “As AI continues to reshape every industry, the most important question professionals face is not whether AI matters; it is whether they have the skills to work with it, build with it, and lead with it. Most programs teach learners about AI. This program teaches them to build with it. The AI Accelerator Program takes a learner from zero coding experience to shipping real AI applications, automations, and agents in eight weeks. The curriculum is built around tools that the industry actually uses and roles that companies are actively hiring for. Our goal is to give every motivated learner, whether they are just starting out, growing in their career, or running a business, a structured, practical path into the AI economy.”

The program is open to early-career professionals, rising freshers and ambitious students. No prior coding experience is required, though applicants with a professional background will find the curriculum particularly applicable to their existing work context. Upon successful completion, participants will receive an industry-recognized certificate of completion from Simplilearn.

The AI Accelerator Program is part of Simplilearn’s broader AI-first strategy and sits within its brand narrative, Learn. Grow. Get Ahead with AI. As Simplilearn continues to embed AI across every program and every touchpoint of the learner experience, through its agentic AI companion ALBY, and its growing network of industry partnerships, the AI Accelerator Program serves as the entry point for learners who want to move from AI awareness to AI capability, and from AI capability to real career outcomes.
