Can I publish a course that is already published on other online learning platform?

Go to solution

Hi everyone,

 

I was wondering if I can publish a course that is already published on other online learning platform.

 

The course is free.

 

Thanks in advance.

If it is your course and you hold the rights to the course you can publish it where you like, Udemy doesn't hold the rights to your courses posted here on Udemy, so as long as you hold the rights to the course and the rights aren't held by someone else (a company/other course host etc) then you can have the course on Udemy. What you can't do is have the course free elsewhere and then publish it paid here on Udemy. You would have to publish it free here on Udemy if it is free elsewhere. If it is paid elsewhere, then you can publish it paid here on Udemy. 

All the best

I have a published course on Udemy. Now I want to publish it on other platforms to reach more students/increase revenue.

 

Is that possible?

 

What do I need to in terms of legal/copyright issues?

Hi;

Yes you can but consider these:

1- The price of Your course in other Platforms most not be Free.

2- You must be agree with Udmey policy.

3-For more questions you can directly send email to : policy@udemy.com or chat with       Udemy online agents.

I asked Udemy's support team and they said that it's okay.

Can I publish a course i have on Udemy somewhere else for a cheaper price?

Hey @JonasOver, you are welcome to post your courses on any platform you choose. All we ask is that you do not offer them for free elsewhere while charging for them on Udemy.

Please note, however, courses posted on any sites other than your own will be ineligible for our Udemy For Business catalog. Publishing a Udemy for Business course on any other platforms may result in permanent exclusion from the catalog.

Please see the Terms of Use for further information. Feel free to reach out to policy@udemy.com for more specific questions.

 

Hope this helps!
