- To do so, the commission is working in collaboration with the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY).
- To offer the courses on the portal, the ministry will integrate the e-resources along with their Common Service Centres (CSC) and Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) centres on the UGC free courses portal.
- UGC has designated 7.5 lakh CSCs and SPVs that will help impart these courses for the 2022-23 academic session.
- There are a total of 23,000 postgraduate courses, 137 SWAYAM MOOC courses, and 25 non-engineering SWAYAM courses on the free UGC course portal.
- The courses will be made available in nine languages – Hindi, Tamil, Bangla, Marathi, Gujarati, Malayalam, Telugu, Kannada, and English.
- Students can use these free UGC courses to gain knowledge about the subjects they are learning in college or to take upto 40% credit of the courses and store them in the Academic Bank of Credit (ABC) system.
- The commission will also offer degrees through its Digital University, when the university is launched. For now, students can earn 40% of their course credits from these free courses.
How to Access the Free UGC Courses?
Students can access the free UGC courses in two ways:
- Directly: Through their smartphones
- Indirectly: By visiting the Common Service Centres (CSC) and Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) centres located near them.
How to Access Free UGC Courses Directly?
To do so, the candidate needs:
- A smartphone, tablet, or laptop/computer.
- A stable internet connection.
Once these two things are procured, the candidate can:
- Visit the free UGC courses portal
- Create a new account for free
- Get access to the courses
- Start studying
How to Access Free UGC Courses Indirectly?
This method can be used if the candidate does not have a smartphone and stable internet connection. In such a case, they can visit the nearest Common Service Centres (CSC) and Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) centres located in their villages, towns, and cities.
Since there are 7 lakh 50 thousand of these centres around the country, candidates will be able to find them easily.
These centres are being managed by local entrepreneurs, also known as village level entrepreneurs (VLEs). The centres have computers and internet connectivity that students can benefit from. Although there are no charges for accessing the courses, the student has to pay a fee of Rs 20 per day (or Rs 500 per month) to use the computers and the internet facility at the centres. This is done so as to reimburse the VLEs efforts and cost of their infrastructure.

UGC to launch portal for online courses
The University Grants Commission, in collaboration with MeiTY, will launch a portal to offer undergraduate and postgraduate digital courses in eight languages for the benefit of rural students
On Friday, the University Grants Commission will launch a portal to offer undergraduate and postgraduate digital courses. The UGC is collaborating with the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) for this purpose.
The Commission will integrate its e-resources with the ministry’s common service centres (CSC) and special purpose vehicle (SPV) centres.
UGC chairman M. Jagadesh Kumar said the commission had tied up with MeitY recently not only “to make the last mile connectivity a possibility” but also ensure students could access the content in regional languages besides English.
Over five lakh CSCs and SPVs are functioning across the country. They are run by village-level entrepreneurs to provide e-governance services at people’s doorstep.
The UGC is tapping into this internet connectivity to offer 137 Swayam MOOC courses and 23,000 PG courses in 25 subjects. They include artificial intelligence; academic writing; corporate law, cyber security, and digital library.
The courses will be available in eight languages, including Hindi, Tamil, Bangla, Marathi, Gujarati, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada besides English.
“The courses will be available on a single portal. It is launched as part of the second anniversary of National Education Policy 2020. Students can access all these courses immediately through CSC/SPVs across the country or on their own devices with internet connectivity,” said Mr. Kumar.
Though the courses are offered for free, students will have to pay service charges amounting to ₹20 a day or ₹500 a month for using the CSC/SVP. The money would be used to reimburse the village-level entrepreneurs who run the centres and the cost of infrastructure, Mr. Kumar said.
