# Learn it, then prove it.

Koushalam is a vocational learning platform built on top of India's national skilling framework rather than beside it. It teaches, drills and evidences a trainee's competence against the government's own standards.

**Voice first, in three languages.**
English, Hindi and Tamil, on the entry-level Android phones trainees actually hold. A tutor that speaks, listens and answers, grounded in the national occupational standards for the qualification pack being studied.

**Practice that holds.**
Study modules per standard, spaced repetition, a trade vocabulary lab, timed mock assessments tagged to competencies, practical video submission against an assessor's rubric, an oral viva, and a readiness score that weighs all of it.

**For the training partner.**
Batches and candidates, engagement measured rather than self-reported, early flags on candidates falling behind, attendance tied to location, and the compliance pack an audit asks for.

**For the employer.**
Postings tagged to the qualification pack, search that does not expose personal data, and a pipeline.

**What it does not do.**
It does not run the official assessment and it does not award the certificate. NCVET and the sector skill councils do that. Koushalam's job is to make a candidate worth certifying, and it augments the government's systems rather than competing with them.

**Replaces**
training content nobody can read, and completion rates nobody wants to publish.
