In an endeavour to promote IGNCA’s mandate and to attract people towards Indian art and to nurture trained manpower in related fields, IGNCA had introduced short term certificate courses in 2019 encompassing a wide gamut of courses ranging from Rock Art Appreciation, Documentary & Ethnographic Film making, Folklore & Intangible Cultural Heritage, Screenwriting etc.

These short term certificate courses are spread across a time span of three months with approx. two-hours sessions held during weekdays comprising 4 credits with a view to provide an insight and to develop interest in the concerned areas of study. A well-designed course by expert faculty of IGNCA, eminent guests from the field of art & culture as speakers and well equipped infrastructure provides a congenial atmosphere for a wholesome learning experience.

IGNCA is now accepting applications for the fourth batch of short-term Certificate Courses that will include the following nine courses starting this February 2024:
