Can I create a course without a video?

Hi all. I have a simple question, can I create my own course on this platform without video? Just text, practical assignments and that's it.

I used to take such courses and it was very convenient. You can go back and find and reread information you missed faster.

The second question, is it possible to make that without the right answer to the practical assignment can not take the course further?

I would be grateful for an answer, all have a good day

Hi @YefimovNik Currently, one of the requirements is to have at least 30 minutes of video lectures divided into 5 videos. So it is mandatory to have a video in the courses, as well we believe students feel a connection with the instructor when they see you involved in the course. 

 

Regarding the assignments, they are meant to have a solution for students at the end of the assignments, you can learn more about assignments here.

According to their policy, Udemy requires at least 30 minutes of content and no more than 120 minutes for free content. However, not all of us have the ability to equipment to record videos. Therefore, we might have to either upload videos from Khan Academy or any other educational site that gives us the permission to do so and I am actually one of the ones who doesn't have the ability or equipment to record. On the other hand, those who do have the ability and equipment can record as much as they need to in order to account for the content that is a half hour or more.
