Founded in 2020 by Ritwiz Tiwari, Bizgurukul initially built its reputation by training Indian learners in digital marketing and freelancing skills before expanding internationally. The company says its learner and freelancer network has grown from a primarily domestic base to spanning more than 180 countries.
Bizgurukul says its international growth has validated its model of structured, trainer-led courses combined with community support to help learners progress from complete beginners to working freelancers, regardless of where they start. The regional-language launch is the next step in applying that model to learners who are more comfortable training in their own language than in English or Hindi.
“We've spent the last few years proving this model works at scale, across very different markets,” said Ritwiz Tiwari. “Now we're making sure it's not gatekept by language for learners closer to home. If someone in Madurai or Mysuru or Vijayawada wants to build a freelance career using AI, they shouldn't have to first get comfortable in a second language to learn how.”
For students and working professionals in tier-2 and tier-3 South Indian cities, the course is designed to address both language and skills barriers. Instead of translating existing English or Hindi content, each regional edition is being developed as a standalone course, allowing learners to absorb concepts in their first language rather than losing time and confidence while working through a second language.
The course is focused on practical applications, with learners expected to be able to offer AI-powered services to clients, build a portfolio and start earning. The program is aimed particularly at beginners, students and working professionals who may not have a formal technology background but are seeking a low-barrier entry point into freelance income.
Learners who complete the course will receive a Certification of Completion. The program joins Bizgurukul’s existing library of more than 100 courses covering digital marketing, video editing and business fundamentals, delivered through pre-recorded modules and live training sessions.
Bizgurukul says Tamil, Telugu and Kannada are the first of several regional languages it plans to add to its catalogue, alongside continued expansion of its AI-focused curriculum. The company describes the move as an effort to widen access to a model it says has already proven itself at global scale.
“Reach means little if the training itself isn't accessible in the language someone actually learns in,” Tiwari added. “We spent the last few years proving this model travels well across very different markets. Now the priority is making sure it travels just as well across languages closer to home starting with the South.”
The Freelancing with AI course will go live this September on Bizgurukul’s platform and through its network of freelance coaches.
Bizgurukul is India’s leading digital freelance school, offering courses in digital marketing, entrepreneurship and related skills, founded by Ritwiz Tiwari. The platform states that its mission is to make practical, freelancing- and career-oriented skill education accessible to learners across India.
