Is there a feature where fellow students can contact each other?

Hello Udemy community,

I'm in the midst of creating my course now. There's so much more to do and I would say I'm about 20% in which is exciting!

I'm wondering if there's some kind of feature where fellow students of the course can communicate with each other- to exchange contact info

My Voice Acting course is quite an in-depth one and there are ALOT of practical assignments. It will boost students learning by 1000% if they were able to have Zoom calls and practice the script readings with each other.

Is there som kind of feature on Udemy to enable students to do this?

Hi @gogogracie
Thank you for asking!

I think most instructors don‘t do this because it will increase the workload, and it will be untimely as students may join your courses after a couple of months as well, then it will be very chaotic.

However, you can ask our Trust & Safety team if you are allowed to do this, please send an email to policy@udemy.com

On Udemy, there is a feature called the Q&A section that allows students to interact with the instructor and ask questions related to the course content. However, as of my knowledge, Udemy does not have a built-in feature that enables direct communication or exchange of contact information between students.

While students cannot directly connect with each other on the Udemy platform, you can encourage students to engage and interact with one another through the course's Q&A section. They can share their thoughts, ask questions, and help each other by providing feedback and support within the course community.

If you would like to facilitate Zoom calls or practice sessions between students, you can consider creating a separate platform or community outside of Udemy where students can connect with each other. This could be a private Facebook group, a dedicated forum, or a communication tool like Slack or Discord. You can inform your students about this additional platform and encourage them to join if they are interested in collaborating and practicing script readings together.

Remember to familiarize yourself with Udemy's policies and guidelines regarding external platforms and communication to ensure compliance with their terms of service.

It's always a good idea to check Udemy's official documentation or contact their support team for the most up-to-date information on available features and options for student communication.

Best of luck with your Voice Acting course on Udemy!
