upGrad targets 40% growth in short-term, job-linked courses
Financial Express Pune
|June 25, 2025
UPGRAD IS TARGETING 40% revenue growth in FY26 for its bootcamp and certification courses, as demand for short-term, job-linked learning gains traction in both domestic and global markets.
"We are aspiring for about 40% year-on-year growth in our overall bootcamps business, and we'll be in profitability this year," Anuj Vishwakarma, chief operating officer at upGrad, told FE.
A bootcamp course is a short, intensive, and hands-on training programme designed to quickly impart practical skills in a specific field.
He added that this segment is already contributing meaningfully to the company's overall margins.
Unlike long-form academic degrees, these offerings are designed as short-duration, industry-aligned modules tailored to specific learner needs.
upGrad currently operates in three broad areas within this segment: university partnerships for early-stage skilling, global certifications for working professionals, and free modules aimed at boosting learner engagement.
