Exploring the Instructor community

[SelormKomla]

Hi everyone. I'm new here, exploring the Instructor community and hoping to launch my first course soon. I'm a Geospatial Analyst and resource development specialist. Happy new year to you all

Hi @SelormKomla - Welcome to Udemy. Before creating your first course I would strongly suggest searching to see how many other courses already exist that cover the topic you intend to cover in your course. New instructors rarely do this. They then spend a month or two creating their course, publish it, have maybe a handful of students after a couple months and wonder what's wrong. They failed to realize there are 500 other courses already teaching this topic.
