Kazakhstan’s Ministry of Science and Higher Education is working with NVIDIA through its Deep Learning Institute (DLI) program. The program aims to train and certify instructors and build students’ skills in artificial intelligence.
During NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang’s visit to Kazakhstan on October 23, 2026, officials highlighted the need to expand cooperation and proposed establishing a regional NVIDIA Physical AI Hub in the country.
The initiative would bring universities and industrial partners together to train specialists and develop applied solutions in physical artificial intelligence.
For the first phase, Kazakhstan’s universities would be offered access to NVIDIA DLI courses, learning materials and practical sessions with certification. The program includes free instructor certification and training seminars for academic audiences.
Trained instructors would be able to teach students at their universities. Existing university infrastructure and available cloud computing resources are expected to provide the technical foundation.
The initiative is planned in stages. Universities would first receive access to the DLI program and instructors would be trained and certified. Later, certified specialists could organize courses and practical sessions for students at their universities.
