Hello creators,
I am new here and wondering if i can use pseudonym to keep my real identity hidden ?
Thanks in advance for your time.
Hi @RK_Sharma,
Thank you so much for your interest in becoming an Udemy instructor. Yes, it's allowed to create an account under a pen name rather than your legal name.
However, please note that if your new name differs from your legal name, you may be asked to complete additional instructor identification steps. You may change your name at any time by following this link to your profile.
If you have additional questions, please let me know.
Thank you so much Marian for clarifying, appreciate it !!
Pleasure! Please let us know if you have additional questions. We wish you the best of success on Udemy!
Hi @MarinaT,
I set up my account with a pseudonym and I am having trouble with verification since the name on my identity is different that the pseudonym. How should I proceed?
Hi @HanimSultan, I understand that this situation can be a bit concerning. To get the assistance you need, please email our Trust & Safety team at policy@udemy.com. They are dedicated to helping and will guide you through the next steps. Let us know if you need anything else.
Hi @ElianaC , what about the presenter in the video? can it be AI generated? I understood from previous chats that the audio can be AI generated (has to be good quality and human and not robotic)
Hi @Justin101,
Thank you for asking! Yes, Udemy does allow the use of AI or text-to-speech tools, but we have specific guidelines in place to ensure a high-quality learning experience for our students. You can review those guidelines here. If you have any detailed questions about what's allowed, feel free to contact our policy team directly at policy@udemy.com.
Also, before starting with full course production, I recommend using our Test Video service. It allows you to submit a sample video and get feedback from our team to ensure you're on the right track.
I hope this helps! Please let us know if you have any other questions.
Hi @Justin101, thanks for your question. Yes, it can be AI-generated, but there is a verification process you need to follow. Please send an email to the Trust & Safety team for more information at policy@udemy.com.
Hello there!
Since it would be OK to use Avatars+Voice-Over and as well Pseudonyms, what would be then the alternative to the :
"A credible and complete instructor bio and profile picture" in the course landing page ??
Hi @Justin101, Thanks for your question. I will recommend that you reach out to the Trust & Safety team at policy@udemy.com. The team will be able to provide you with more details about your account. Thanks for your understanding!
