🏛️

Selective Admission, Not Open Enrollment

ISS admits students — it doesn't sell subscriptions. Every cohort has 30 seats. You apply, take a skills assessment, and have a conversation with our admissions team. You earn your seat. That changes your relationship with the work entirely.

🔴

Live Sessions, Never Recorded

Every session is live. Every practitioner is currently doing the work they teach. There is no video library. No self-paced track. No "watch at 2x speed." You show up or you fall behind — because that is what real work looks like.

📁

Portfolio Output, Not Certificate

You exit ISS with something you built — a deployed agent, a live campaign with real data, a published design case study. Not a PDF with your name on it. The market rewards what you can show, not what you were given.

One standard. Four domains.

Every ISS program runs 5–6 months, live, cohort-based. The domain differs. The standard does not.

ISS runs alongside whatever you're already doing.

Sessions run three evenings a week. You keep your life. You gain a skill.

Your College / University
  • Lectures on business concepts
  • Textbook case studies and solved papers
  • Annual exams and attendance registers
  • A degree at the end
Indian School of Skills
  • Live sessions with practitioners doing the work right now
  • Real projects, real tools, real deadlines, real feedback
  • A cohort of 25–30 who hold you accountable
  • Something you built at the end — with a live URL

Already at a university or in a job? Good. ISS was designed to run parallel. Three evenings a week — Monday, Wednesday, Friday, 7:00–8:30 PM IST — is all it takes.

Three students ISS was built for.

The College Student

In your final year. Worried about what comes next.

Your degree is almost done. But your CV looks like everyone else's in your batch. You want something real to show when recruiters ask "what have you built?" ISS gives you a portfolio piece — built during your final year — before you graduate.

  • Can attend 3 evenings a week
  • Wants a portfolio, not just marks
  • Ready to be assessed, not just enrolled

The Early-Career Professional

1–3 years in. Feeling stuck at the same level.

You have a job. It's fine. But the growth you expected hasn't happened. You know more than when you started but you have nothing new to show for it. ISS gives you a skill leap that shows — in your work, your CV, and your confidence.

  • Working but wants to pivot or grow fast
  • Can commit evenings without disrupting work
  • Wants to show, not just tell

The Aspiring Builder

Working on an idea. Needs the skill to execute it.

You have the ambition. You have the idea. The gap is the specific skill to move it forward. ISS gives you exactly that skill, in five months, with a real output.

  • Has a project or side hustle in progress
  • Needs structured execution, not inspiration
  • Willing to build in public and show the work

India's skill gap is real. ISS is the answer.

India produces 1.5 million engineering graduates every year. Less than half are job-ready. The problem isn't intelligence — it's the near-total absence of real skill-building in the curriculum.

of Indian graduates are not employable in their chosen field

Practitioners, not professors.
