The importance of Open and Distance Learning in the educational system is constantly increasing. SWAYAM (Study Webs of Active Learning for Young Aspiring Minds) is one such platform where students can learn and develop various skills through online courses. So, this paper aims to study that whether in the age of social media, the young generation are also aware about such online learning platforms. This study further verifies if it creates any impact on their growth and skill development. The relation between exam enrolment and exam registration is also analysed using regression analysis. Thus, the overall satisfaction of students about SWAYAM and improvements if required is found out with the help of this study. It was concluded that that the awareness level among students is less but there is a significant relation between skill development and use of courses on SWAYAM. It was also analysed that the ratio of students enrolling, registering for exam and completing the course is on a declining trend. So, the authorities are recommended to take necessary steps for making improvements.
