Taking Time to Get Published | 45 Days Challenge

Greetings, everyone! Namaste!

I started on Udemy recently and participated in the "45 Days Challenge" as well. I submitted my course a couple of days ago and it still shows as a Draft. It is not published yet, I believe.

I have three questions:

  1. How long does it get to publish the first course?
  2. Will it take similar time for all my future courses as well, or is it only the first course that takes so much time?
  3. Since I am publishing within the time limit of 45 Days, what benefits will I get?

Thanks for answering. Have an abundant day!

    It should be approved within a week. And every course needs to go through the same process.

    Welcome and good luck!

  • Thanks. What about the 45 Days Challenge?

    What happens when my course gets published?

    Happy Monday @TranceMindset
    ,

    Thank you for posting, and I understand that you can't wait to have your course

    published on Udemy .

    It usually takes 2 business days, depending on the volume of submitted courses.

    And yes, each new course must undergo our quality review process. If you haven't heard back within two business days, please reach out to our support here.

    About the Challenge: We feature winners for the New Instructor Challenge each Monday here.
    If Monday, this week, has passed before your course was published, your course will be featured the following week.

    If you do not see your course listed, then please contact our support team here.

    Please let us know if you have additional questions .

    Good luck!

  • Thanks. My course was published last week and I have already got 8 enrollments.

    However, the link you sent where I can check if my course is listed, is not working!!
