About SkilD

We’re SkilD.A live school where industry experts teach the work they do.

Data engineering, machine learning and AI, taught live in rooms of thirty. Every learner leaves with something they built that runs.

01Our story Stand-in story

We started in a training room with one rule: nothing ends on a slide.

How a training desk for companies became a live school for data and AI.

  1. 01Raipur

    The training room

    Aditya was running technical training for companies. Teams sat through a tool for three days and went back to work unchanged. The few who changed had built something in the room.

  2. 02The first month

    One rule

    So the slides went. Every session became a build, and a session ended only when the thing it taught ran on the learner’s own laptop.

  3. 03Weekends

    The first open cohort

    Engineers from client teams asked for seats for their friends. Twenty-three people joined the first open cohort and built a pipeline on public market prices.

  4. 04Pune

    Live, from anywhere

    Classes moved online and stayed live: one room of thirty, cameras on, an expert answering by name. A learner in Guwahati got the same room as one in Pune.

  5. 05Now

    Today

    Three PG Programs and five courses, taught live to open cohorts, company teams and university students.

Stand-in

“If it doesn’t run, you haven’t learned it yet. That was the rule in the first room, and it is the rule in every room now.”
