*Microsoft is rolling out an exciting opportunity for anyone interested in artificial intelligence with its AI Skills Fest, a 50-day event that kicked off on April 8 and runs through May 28.
This initiative welcomes everyone, whether you’re a beginner curious about AI or a seasoned professional looking to sharpen your expertise. Best of all, it’s completely free, and participants can play a role in helping Microsoft snag a Guinness World Record for the most people completing an online AI lesson in a single day.
The festivities started with a 24-hour challenge spanning April 7-8, aiming to surpass the current record of 46,045 participants set by an Indian tech group last year. Those who joined via the Microsoft AI Skills Fest registration page, shared their details, and agreed to let Microsoft represent them in the Guinness attempt could complete a lesson during that window to earn a participation badge—a cool bragging right for LinkedIn. While the record-breaking kickoff has passed, the learning opportunities are far from over.
Courses cover everything from AI basics and everyday applications to advanced topics like machine learning and tools such as Azure and Copilot. Available in dozens of languages, including English, Spanish, Hindi, and more, the training is designed for all skill levels, letting you progress at your own pace through a mix of lessons, hackathons, and challenges.
There’s even a chance to score perks like one of 50,000 free certification vouchers via a sweepstakes or a discount on GitHub’s Copilot exam. Whether you’re in it for the skills, the swag, or the thrill of a world record, Microsoft’s AI Skills Fest is a no-cost way to dive into a booming field. Sign up today and get started!
