SWAYAM is an initiative by the Government of India aimed to fulfil the three key principles of the Education Policy: accessibility, equity, and quality. This endeavor aims to make high-quality teaching and learning resources available to all, including those who have been historically underserved. SWAYAM aims to bridge the digital divide, ensuring that students who have not yet benefited from the digital revolution can participate in the knowledge economy.

SWAYAM offers courses in four categories: video lectures, specially created downloadable/ printable reading materials, self-assessment tests through quizzes, and an online discussion forum for addressing doubts. To enhance the learning experience, state-of-the-art pedagogy and technology, including audio-video and multimedia, are employed.

Here are the nine national coordinators appointed to ensure that best quality content is produced and delivered:

•   AICTE (All India Council for Technical Education) for self-paced and international courses
•  NPTEL (National Programme on Technology Enhanced Learning) for Engineering
• UGC (University Grants Commission) for non technical post-graduation education
• CEC (Consortium for Educational Communication) for under-graduate education
•   NCERT (National Council of Educational Research and Training) for school education
•   NIOS (National Institute of Open Schooling) for school education
• IGNOU (Indira Gandhi National Open University) for out-of-school students
•  IIMB (Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore) for management studies
•   NITTTR (National Institute of Technical Teachers Training and Research) for Teacher Training programme

Courses offered on SWAYAM are accessible to learners at no cost. However, learners seeking a SWAYAM certificate must register for the final proctored exams, which entail a fee, and attend the exams in person at designated centers on specified dates.
