What's Included

▼
20+ Free Self-Paced Courses
Topics include generative AI, LLMs, deep learning fundamentals, CUDA C++, Jetson Nano, DeepStream, TensorRT, Omniverse, Isaac Sim, and data science workflows.
Short or Deep, Your Choice
Course lengths range from 30-minute intro modules (e.g., Omniverse basics) to 8-hour hands-on deep dives (e.g., DeepStream, TensorRT on Jetson).
No Verification, No Paywall
Unlike student discount programs, there is no gating. Create a free NVIDIA account and start learning immediately. No .edu email required.
Hands-On with Real GPU Tools
Courses use actual NVIDIA tooling — CUDA, nvcc, nvprof, TensorRT, Triton, Isaac Sim — rather than abstract slides. Useful for building a real skill signal on a resume.

Common Questions

▼
Is this actually free?
Yes. Many NVIDIA DLI self-paced courses are marked free and require only a free NVIDIA account. NVIDIA also sells paid instructor-led courses and certification exams separately, but those are a different program.
Do I need to be a student?
No. These courses are open to anyone — students, working developers, researchers, career-changers. They are not a student-gated discount.
Do I get a certificate?
Some free self-paced courses include a completion certificate, others do not. Separately, NVIDIA offers paid proctored certifications (e.g., Certified Generative AI) which are distinct from free course completion.
Are there prerequisites?
Many beginner courses only require basic programming knowledge and an internet connection. Advanced courses (e.g., CUDA programming, advanced deep learning) assume familiarity with Python, C++, or linear algebra as noted in each course description.
How long do I have access?
NVIDIA does not publish a formal expiration. Enrollment is instant and courses remain available to complete at your own pace.

Eligibility

▼
Who can get this discount?
Open to everyone. These courses are not gated behind student status — anyone with a free NVIDIA account can enroll, including students, professionals, career-changers, and hobbyists. (Separately, educators using NVIDIA Teaching Kits can receive codes that unlock additional institute content for their classrooms.)
How long does it last?
Instant enrollment, no deadlines. NVIDIA does not publish a formal expiration on course access — courses remain available to work through at your own pace.
Available worldwide?
Available globally. Courses are online and self-paced with no country restrictions.
