    Hey @Bella
    ,

    This is fantastic. When I had newly joined Udemy in 2016, I had been through similar courses that Udemy had officially created for instructors. They were topic specific such as Outlining Your Course, Creating Content, among others. They were so unique and helpful that after following the guidelines from those courses, my Udemy career took off. My courses automatically became top-rated and started selling well. Students loved the way the content was produced and the ease in which they could grasp everything. I benefitted immensely from those.

    I am sure this course will be perfect for instructors and help all of us. Thank you for creating a newer version of those and sharing it here! Very helpful.
