Hyderabad: Great Learning, an ed-tech company for higher education and professional training, revealed that professionals from non-technical educational backgrounds accounted for 66 percent of enrolments in its AI programs in FY26.
The demand is largely driven by experienced professionals, with nearly 64 percent of enrolments from non-technical educational backgrounds coming from professionals with over 12 years of work experience. These include senior leaders, functional and business heads across sectors such as BFSI, healthcare and pharma, manufacturing, education and research, and FMCG and retail.
In response to this growing demand, Great Learning introduced no-code learning tracks across most of its portfolio, including Data Science, Machine Learning, GenAI, and Agentic AI programs.
Learners can now choose between a coding track and a no-code track within the same program.
Great Learning co-founder Arjun Nair said , “Today, professionals across functions, whether in finance, healthcare, or supply chain, can use powerful AI tools without needing deep coding expertise.”
