About

“The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” That was exactly on my mind when I founded Miles Education back in 2011 - to build next-gen global talent. Today, my most exciting initiative is Miles Masterclass - a Hollywood-style, story-driven CPE platform that’s making professional education aspirational as well as engaging. We’re starting with AI in Accounting, creating Netflix-quality masterclasses and Instagram-style short-form reels featuring some of the world’s top accounting leaders & innovators. The goal is simple: to help every accountant become AI-ready! Miles Masterclass also powers CAIRA (Certified AI-Ready Accountant) - a global movement and credential to equip accountants with the mindset, skillset, and toolset to thrive in the AI era. Beyond Masterclass, the Miles ecosystem continues to drive transformation across learning, skilling, and global mobility - from Miles Education, India’s largest CPA & CMA training platform with 70,000+ alumni, to Miles Talent Hub, which creates STEM pathways for accountants and nurses to work in the U.S.; Miles Global Education, making education affordable across emerging regions; Miles Campus and Mojo Campus, reimagining higher education and student living; and Futurense Technologies, empowering India’s workforce to lead in the AI era. We're just getting started. Miles to go before we sleep, Miles to go!
