Master Nepali from A1 to C2 with CEFR-aligned training, expert faculty, and dedicated preparation for NTS-I B1/B2 proficiency tests. Learn the Devanagari-based Nepali script, build real communication skills, and unlock careers in interpretation, AI language data, and translation. Available online and in classrooms across Kerala.
Nepali is the official language of Nepal and one of India’s 22 scheduled languages, spoken by over 30 million people across Nepal, India, and the global diaspora. For learners in Kerala, Nepali is more than a regional language — it is a practical skill for careers in interpretation, AI language training, translation, and customer support. Kerala’s remote work landscape already includes Nepali-language opportunities: TP hires English-Nepali interpreters for permanent work-from-home roles, OpSquad AI recruits Nepali language professionals for AI data training, and SuperAnnotate AI pays $10–15 per hour for Nepali language experts. This course is designed for learners who want genuine communicative ability, script mastery, and exam readiness.
Enquire About the Next BatchKerala’s workforce is increasingly connected to India’s language services and AI data industries, and Nepali is a recognised language in both sectors. From remote interpretation and AI training to translation and transcription, Nepali proficiency creates opportunities that are available locally, remotely, and nationally.
The Nepali Language Course in Kerala follows the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), the international standard for language proficiency and the framework used by NTS-I and CEFR-aligned certification bodies. This ensures that your learning outcomes are measurable, internationally understood, and directly relevant to professional, academic, and exam requirements.
The programme is structured so that each level builds systematically. A dedicated Devanagari script foundation is included at the beginner stage, because Nepali uses the Devanagari script with specific conventions for pronunciation and spelling. Learners with prior exposure to Nepali or Devanagari can take a placement assessment to enter at the appropriate level.
Devanagari script for Nepali, basic greetings, self-introduction, numbers, family vocabulary, and simple daily communication.
Reading simple words and sentences, dates and time, shopping, directions, basic tenses, and handling routine conversations with growing confidence.
Paragraph writing, basic essays, complex grammar, role-plays, and situational conversations. This level aligns with the NTS-I B1 proficiency tests developed by CIIL for Nepali.
Fluent interaction, reading authentic texts, formal correspondence, and comprehension of Nepali media and literary extracts. This level is the minimum requirement for many AI training roles and aligns with NTS-I B2 proficiency test development.
Literary reading, translation and interpretation practice, and advanced audio-visual comprehension for professional language work.
Public speaking and presentation in Nepali, advanced translation, nuanced expression, and near-native command across academic, literary, and professional contexts.
Course duration: The full A1–C2 pathway requires approximately 40–240 guided learning hours depending on entry level and pace. Beginner levels include additional time for script mastery, which is essential for all subsequent progress.
The curriculum blends communicative language teaching with explicit script instruction, grammar coaching, and cultural context. Classes are interactive: you will speak, listen, read, and write in Nepali from the very first session.
This programme is designed for a wide range of learners. You do not need to be a linguist or a Nepal specialist. What matters is your goal — and the course adapts to help you reach it.
Nepali proficiency is a practical, income-generating skill with direct applications in Kerala’s remote work landscape, India’s language services industry, and AI data projects. Demand for Nepali-speaking professionals is steady across interpretation, annotation, translation, and language quality assurance roles.
Many learners take a Nepali course to obtain formal certification for employment, academic advancement, or professional credibility. Our programme includes structured preparation for the main proficiency assessment frameworks available for Nepali.
The Central Institute of Indian Languages (CIIL), Mysuru, has developed proficiency tests for Nepali under the NTS-I scheme. CIIL conducted a 15-day online workshop from 28 July to 13 August 2025 on the preparation of proficiency test papers and items at B1 and B2 levels in Hindi, Maithili, Sanskrit, Santali, Marathi, Nepali, and Bhojpuri. The workshop covered basic concepts in testing and evaluation, test types and techniques, subjective and objective item types, proficiency test frameworks, language skills (LSRW), sample papers, and question item interfaces. A total of 33,679 question items were prepared across the languages, and NTS-I has prepared around 1,820 sets of proficiency tests in 21 Indian languages, aligned with CEFR levels A1–C2 and NTS-I levels from Primary to Research. Our preparation covers each skill component with timed practice and individual feedback.
In addition to NTS-I, CEFR-aligned proficiency benchmarks provide a clear framework for measuring your progress. The CEFR divides proficiency into six levels — A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, and C2 — and existing Nepali courses map their outcomes to these levels, from A1 beginner communication to B2 fluency and spontaneity. Our course ensures your skills are calibrated to these standards, preparing you for certification assessments and for roles that require documented proficiency, such as AI training positions that specify B2 level or above.
Note: Exam registration, fees, and test centres are managed by the respective official bodies. Our role is preparation and guidance — not exam administration.
We understand that learners in Kerala have different schedules, locations, and learning preferences. The course is delivered through flexible modes without compromising on trainer quality or curriculum depth.
Language training is not just about completing a syllabus. It is about reaching a level where you can use Nepali confidently — in an interpretation call, during an AI annotation task, in a translation project, or in a conversation with a native speaker. Here is what makes this programme different.
No. The A1 level is designed for complete beginners. A dedicated Devanagari script foundation module is included so you can build reading and writing accuracy before conversational fluency. If you already have some Nepali or knowledge of Devanagari, you can take a placement assessment to join at A2, B1, or a higher level.
Yes. Live interactive online batches are available alongside classroom training in Kochi, Trivandrum, Kozhikode, and other Kerala cities. Online learners receive the same curriculum, trainer access, and exam practice materials as in-person students.
The syllabus aligns with CEFR and prepares learners for NTS-I (National Testing Service-India) B1 and B2 proficiency tests developed by CIIL. CIIL conducted a 15-day online workshop from 28 July to 13 August 2025 on preparation of proficiency test papers and items at B1 and B2 levels in Nepali and other Indian languages, producing 33,679 question items.
With consistent practice, learners can recognise and read basic Nepali script within the first few weeks of the beginner module. Full fluency in reading and writing develops progressively as you advance through A2 and B1, supported by ongoing script drills and authentic reading materials.
Yes. You will receive a course completion certificate from the institute. This is separate from official proficiency certificates such as NTS-I results, which are issued by the respective assessment bodies after you pass their tests.
Nepali proficiency opens roles in interpretation, AI language training, translation, transcription, and language quality assurance. TP hires remote English-Nepali interpreters with permanent work-from-home positions. OpSquad AI recruits Nepali Language Professionals at B2 level or above for AI data training. SuperAnnotate AI pays $10–15 per hour for Nepali Language Experts, and Prolific, Vettedlance, and other platforms offer remote Nepali AI evaluation and transcription roles.
Whether your goal is a career in interpretation, a role in AI language data or translation, preparation for NTS-I B1/B2 certification, or simply connecting with Nepali language and culture — this course gives you a structured, practical, and exam-ready path.
