Magic Bus India Foundation Launches AI-Powered Skilling Programme to Build India's Future-Ready Workforce

Magic Bus India Foundation, one of the leading NGOs in the education and skilling space, has launched an AI-powered skilling curriculum under its Connect With Work (CWW) programme to build India's future-ready workforce. Designed for graduates from underserved communities, this initiative equips them with foundational knowledge and practical AI skills, enhancing their employability in an evolving job market increasingly driven by automation and artificial intelligence.
The Connect With Work (CWW) Programme is a 7-to-10 day, college-based skilling initiative that provides transferable life and employability skills to youth from underserved communities by integrating personal, professional, and future-readiness skills, thereby equipping them for the modern workforce.
The AI-CWW programme builds on the foundation of the CWW programme by familiarizing youth with AI tools and their applications, which can improve their productivity and efficiency in their jobs without requiring deep technical expertise. The vision of the AI-CWW programme is to skill youth for the AI integrated modern workplace.
Youth participants benefit from job-readiness training, which includes mentorship, orientation to specific sectors, interview preparation, and placement in customer-centric roles. The programme also provides post-placement support, ensuring long-term employment retention and career growth. By equipping youth with the skills and confidence to make informed career and life choices, this initiative strengthens their agency—empowering them to support their families, break the cycle of poverty, and serve as role models within their communities.
Jayant Rastogi, Global CEO, Magic Bus India Foundation,
said, "India's vision of Viksit Bharat relies on a skilled and future-ready workforce that drives innovation and economic growth. As AI reshapes industries, it is vital that our youth, especially those from underserved communities, are equipped with the right skills to stay relevant in the evolving job market. At Magic Bus, we believe that empowering youth with AI skills is key to strengthening India's workforce and driving inclusive growth for a sustainable future."
According to the World Economic Forum's Future of Jobs Report 2025, technology skills will dominate the labour market by 2030, with AI, big data, networks, and cybersecurity leading the way. As industries evolve, the workforce will require a blend of technical expertise and cognitive skills, balancing human capabilities with digital proficiency. As AI tools and technologies get increasingly integrated into the workplace, the ability to work alongside AI will become a crucial skill for all professionals, not just coders and engineers.
The AI-CWW programme offers a structured, hands-on learning experience with key AI concepts and practical applications, including awareness of foundational AI technologies, AI ethics and responsible use, and hands-on training in AI-powered workplace tools such as chatbots, prompt engineering, language translation, and productivity applications.
