We recently wrote about the huge uptick in enrollments in Udemy classes as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic – consumer enrollments were up 425% in the first two months of the pandemic.
As a Udemy instructor, you might be considering jumping onto this trend by creating more courses. If so, it might be helpful to reconsider once more how to go about choosing a profitable Udemy course topic.
Why?
Students, working and non-working adults around the world have been at home now for over two months due to the COVID19 shelter in place orders. As a result of extended homestays, massive job cuts, and displaced college and high school students, the world has seen a major surge in online education over the last 2 months.
Teachinguide’s platform aims to provide online instructors with the tools they need to grow their online course audience and sales.
We’ve found that with over 57,000 Udemy instructors and over 100,000 Udemy courses (and growing), that, for instructors, it’s very difficult to get the information and insights you need to be competitive.
Elearners seek a Udemy review frequently. According to Ahrefs, these three questions are searched 2,600, 1,400 and 160 times a month, respectively. These numbers indicate that there’s a fair amount of doubt about the Udemy elearning platform.
These 13 (we thought this number appropriate considering the current global situation) Udemy courses provide some inspiration and ideas for how to optimize all those hours you might be spending indoors for the foreseeable future due to COVID19.
It’s been a few months since we last reported on what’s up with Udemy and other eLearning platforms. Here’s a roundup of some recent developments with Udemy and online learning. One thing’s for sure, Udemy is going nowhere except across the globe!
Spring is almost here and do you know what that means? It’s time to do some “spring cleaning” and improve your online course (s)! It’s easy to think that after a successful holiday and/or Udemy January sales run that there’s no need to improve your online course. After all, your course is selling right? (Or, perhaps it’s not?)
Recently, we received a question from a reader about copyright infringement rules as it applies to online course creation. The reader is considering creating a Udemy course but wants to base the outline, structure, examples and flow of content on a known textbook.
The reader said that it would be obvious that the course was based on this textbook. He asked if we had experience with other instructors on the issue of copyright infringement.
Udemy’s January Sale ran from December 31 to January 10, 2020. Using Teachinguide’s database we’ve tallied up the results. You’ll recall we did a similar analysis for Udemy’s 2019 Cyber Week sale. We wanted to do a little comparison between these two big Udemy sales and see what the similarities and differences are.
In our last article, we highlighted top workplace skills for 2020. This week, we are focusing on top personal development skills.
Personal development skills are a hot topic in general right now. A new decade has begun and so potential learners will be thinking about what personal goals and characteristics they want to achieve in 2020 and beyond.
