All of the classes from class 9 to post-graduation can be accessed by anyone, anywhere, at any time thanks to a platform. All of the courses are interactive, made by the best teachers in the country, and are available to anyone who wants to take them. They don't cost anything. More than 1,000 faculty and teachers from across the country have helped make these courses.

On SWAYAM, each course has four parts: a video lecture, reading material that can be downloaded or printed, tests, and quizzes, as well as an online discussion forum where you can ask questions. In order to improve the learning experience, audio-video and multimedia tools have been used as well as the most up to date methods and technology.

In order to make sure that the best content is made and delivered, nine National Coordinators have been chosen.

1. AICTE (All India Council for Technical Education) for self-paced and international courses
2. NPTEL (National Programme on Technology Enhanced Learning) for Engineering
3. UGC (University Grants Commission) for non technical post-graduation education
4. CEC (Consortium for Educational Communication) for under-graduate education
