Hi
Certification isn’t just a line on your resume—it’s proof that you can build, verify, and innovate in the real world of silicon. As the demand for skilled VLSI and RISC-V engineers surges in 2025, the right certification program can be the difference between watching the industry evolve and leading the next wave of breakthroughs.
Why VSD Certification?
Our programs are designed for students, freshers,
and professionals ready to bridge the gap between academic theory and hands-on chip design. You’ll tackle real projects, use open-source EDA tools, and solve the same challenges faced by top semiconductor teams—no expensive licenses, just pure engineering.
Industry-relevant curriculum: From RTL to GDSII, every step mirrors what’s expected in leading chip design labs.
Mentorship from experts: Learn directly from engineers who’ve
taken designs from concept to tapeout.
Portfolio-building projects: Complete a certification with a finished design you can showcase to employers.
Upcoming Programs: Your Path to Mastery

What Sets VSD Apart?
We don’t just teach; we push you to do. Every certification is grounded in the principle of "learning by doing"—you'll design, test, and iterate until you’ve mastered the flow. Our alumni have published research, landed jobs, and contributed to open-source projects that drive the industry
forward.
