AI-901 Azure AI Fundamentals Training in Malda (2026 Guide)
The short answer for Malda
Yes — AI-901 Azure AI Fundamentals certification training is fully available to participants in Malda, West Bengal: live, MCT-led classes in IST that you join from Malda itself, INR fees paid by UPI or card, and an on-site option for corporate teams. No relocation, no metro travel, no recorded videos. Here is the complete local picture.
Why this matters in Malda
Malda is North Bengal's gateway — the mango economy whose name travels the world, a historic silk tradition, a growing university-and-college population, and the trade that flows through its position on every route north. Its students and young professionals watch AI reshape opportunity from a distance metros don't feel; a foundational, exam-backed credential closes that distance. AI-901 gives Malda participants Microsoft-certified AI literacy: hands-on with Azure and Microsoft Foundry, basic Python included, valid for life.
What the AI-901 programme covers
AI-901 (Azure AI Fundamentals) is the recognised entry point into Microsoft's AI certification ladder, and like every Microsoft fundamentals certification it never expires. It replaced AI-900, which Microsoft retired on 30 June 2026. The exam expects basic Python and some familiarity with Azure, because more than half of it covers building AI solutions in Microsoft Foundry. CertTulen's MCT-led programme covers the full exam surface:
- Core AI concepts and responsible AI: what generative and agentic AI, text analysis, speech, computer vision and information extraction actually do, and how to choose and configure a model
- Generative AI apps and agents in Microsoft Foundry: deploying a model, writing effective prompts, and building a simple chat client and a single agent
- Text, speech and vision: small applications that analyse text, respond to spoken prompts and work with images
- Information extraction: pulling data from documents, forms, images, audio and video with Azure Content Understanding
It's the ideal first Microsoft AI certification for students, career switchers and technical teams who want to build with AI, not only talk about it, and it leads naturally into role-based tracks like AI-103 or the data certifications.
Paying from Malda: simple and India-first
Fees display in INR, checkout is Razorpay (UPI, all major cards, netbanking), and receipts arrive instantly — the same frictionless payment whether you're in a metro or in Malda. Corporate teams get an official quotation first and GST-compliant invoices after, so finance sign-off is straightforward. Public batch seats are priced per participant; dedicated cohorts for five-plus are quoted per cohort. Contact us and we'll send the current fee sheet the same day.
Formats available in Malda
- Live online (public batches) — join from anywhere in Malda over Teams in IST; hands-on labs, direct trainer review, weekend and evening options for working professionals
- Private cohort (on-site or dedicated online) — for teams of five or more in Malda: your calendar, your industry's example data, GST-compliant invoicing for procurement
Both formats are led end to end by the same Microsoft Certified Trainer. See the courses page for upcoming public dates, or contact us to schedule a private cohort.
Who's hiring these skills around Malda
Local demand concentrates in:
- Mango trade and processing
- Silk and sericulture
- Universities and colleges
- Trade and logistics (North Bengal gateway)
- Banking and services
The pattern repeats across every one of these sectors: the professional who can work with modern tools directly — analysing, automating, building, instead of waiting in a request queue — becomes the one management leans on, and a recognised certification makes that capability legible to recruiters and promotion panels at a glance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why should a Malda graduate choose AI-901 over a generic online AI certificate?+
Because it's Microsoft's own examined credential, verifiable by any employer, earned through a proctored exam — not an attendance certificate. It also unlocks the role-based Microsoft ladder afterward, which generic certificates don't.
What are the class timings for Malda participants who study or work?+
Live online batches run in IST with evening and weekend options built for students and working professionals; sessions are interactive with exam-style mocks included, and the proctored exam itself is taken online from home in Malda.
