Hi @LucindaSage942, awesome idea! A student community is a great way to connect your learners. At this time, it is not possible to create a student community directly on Udemy, but I recommend taking a look at this article to see all the different ways you can engage with your learners on the platform. We also have this post where we asked instructors if they had a student community, I think this is the perfect resource for you! Many instructors have shared where they host their communities, how they manage them, best practices, and more. I hope this helps! Bella Almeida Udemy Community

Hi @AndreiBarbu, thank you for reaching out and asking these great questions! I'm bumping your post to see if anyone can assist here. Also, I'm tagging some of our Community Champions who may be able to share their experience with you: @Thor, @Maged-Koshty, @MarkLassoff - do you guys have any insights to share with Andrei? Thank you in advance! Bella Almeida Udemy Community

Hi @Olesii Titov, AlexYanovsky School, thank you for your query. You can upload courses to Udemy as a company and have more than one instructor, as co-instructors can be added and assigned various permissions, which enable them to access certain information and features related to the course. This article outlines how instructors can invite co-instructors to their courses and manage their instructor permissions and settings I recommend reaching out to our team at policy@udemy.com as the team is best equipped to answer your specific questions and guide you through this process. All the best! Bella Almeida Udemy Community

This is amazing @Ahmed_Jendoubi, thank you for sharing your tips! This topic is often discussed in our community, and posts like this are very helpful. 🙌 Interested in hearing what other instructors have to say too! Bella Almeida Udemy Community

Hey Instructor Community! At the end of each month, we want to take some time to gather feedback from you! As we went through the month of January, we covered topics related to setting your goals as instructors! We’d love to hear what you think about your experience within the community and what more we can do to help you. How can Udemy help you reach your goals in 2023? Send us your suggestions in the comments below!

Hi @RobertBrown028, I completely understand your concern here -- instructors see the community as more than just a place to connect with each other, but also a place where they can share their voice and be heard by our team at Udemy, and we want to give you this space and the opportunity to give your opinions. We have a feedback process in place to ensure your ideas are categorized and documented for internal review by the appropriate teams at Udemy. Some of the ideas that have started in the community and are now existing features on Udemy are the bulk coupon creation and coupon scheduling tools. Currently, @LawrenceMMiller 's request for year-over-year stats is also being looked at as a result of the community. Additionally, we have many other features that were suggested by other instructors currently in the works - some of them are: Improving auto-captions quality Improving educational announcements/promotional emails editor Reporting for quizzes, assessments, practice tests, and coding exercises Others are being considered, such as: Ability to provide courses in bundles New payout methods for international instructors We would honestly love to work on everything that is brought to us, and are passionate about bringing the best Udemy to you all! But all the feedback we receive has to be considered within the context of our long-term product roadmap and engineering resources. All we can ask is for instructors to keep asking and advocating for the features they'd like to see, as this helps us to make a case to bump up the prioritization of the request. Thanks for your willingness to continually share your thoughts and feedback with us. Let me know if you have any other questions! Bella Almeida Udemy Community

Woohoo, congratulations @Otabek Abdurakhmonov, that's such a great start! Best wishes for continuous success in the platform! Bella Almeida Udemy Community

Hi @PeterMcMill782, great question! You can definitely use your own captions, they will still appear on your course landing page for students and your course will be listed as captioned in these respective languages. For more information, check out the articles: Adding captions to your videos Auto-generated Subtitles FAQ I hope this helps! Bella Almeida Udemy Community

Great tips, @Prabanjan! Thanks a lot for sharing 🙂

Hi @VictorFreys, sorry about that! Here is the correct link for you to check. If you'd like to see what video editing tools other instructors are using, take a look at this post. I hope this helps! Good luck with your course and please let us know if you need anything else. 🙂 Bella Almeida Udemy Community

Bella · ‎01-30-2023

Wow, your desk looks so beautiful and elegant @RaquelCoelho, thanks for sharing! 🥰

Bella · ‎01-27-2023

Hi @Lamza Med, great question! Please note that your students have the option to choose the size and where the subtitles are displayed, so they would be able to add them underneath the video to make sure they can see your graphic completely. Example below: I just wanted to let you know that I have asked our team if it is possible to change the position of the subtitles by uploading the vtt. files and will let you know once I hear back about it. Thanks for your patience! Bella Almeida Udemy Community

Bella · ‎01-27-2023

Hi @EliCohen419, thanks for reaching out, and sorry for any trouble this is causing. We understand how important this feature is, we have sent the report to our specialists, and once we have any news, we will let you know. If you have any other questions in the meantime, please let me know! Bella Almeida Udemy Community

Bella · ‎01-27-2023

Yayyyy! 😁 Kudos to you too, @RobertBrown028!

Bella · ‎01-26-2023

Hi @RobertBrown028 thanks for asking about this! 'kudos' is the same as 'likes'. I agree that this is not very intuitive at the moment, so I'll be sharing your feedback with our team. Thank you so much!

Bella · ‎01-26-2023

Hi @RaquelCoelho, that's a very interesting question. I believe instructors in the Portuguese Community will be best suited to help you with this one. Feel free to create a post there and I'm sure the community will be happy to share their thoughts with you! 😊

Bella · ‎01-26-2023

Hi @RobertBrown028 that's correct, 'kudos' is the same as 'likes'. I agree that this is not very intuitive at the moment, so I'll be sharing your feedback with our team. Thank you so much! Bella Almeida Udemy Community

Bella · ‎01-26-2023

Hi @YasserHawar_71, I'm sorry that your profile picture has automatically changed to Udemy's logo, that's certainly not expected, the logo is usually added for members without a profile picture. I'll be investigating this for a solution and will keep you posted. In the meantime, could you please try to manually change your profile picture and see if that works? Thanks! Bella Almeida Udemy Community

Bella · ‎01-26-2023

Thank you so much for your feedback @Michael_D_Nwaogu! I appreciate your comments and will be sharing this with the team so we can explore ways to make the community platform navigation more user-friendly. To answer your and @RaquelCoelho's question, 'boards' are the different forums we have in the community, for example, the pages Announcements, First-Time Course Creation, Marketing, Stories, and Milestones, etc. All you need to do in order to progress in this requirement is to visit these boards, and each time you do, that will count as a 'board view' which will get you closer to achieving the next rank. I hope this helps clear things up! Let me know if you have any other questions. 😊 Bella Almeida Udemy Community

Hi, everyone, Over the past few months, we’ve done some research to understand how we can improve the Udemy mobile app for you. Many of you shared your challenges with viewing and responding to learner Q&A on the app. Based on your feedback, we've updated the instructor mobile Q&A experience to be more intuitive across iOS and Android. Now on the instructor app, you’ll be able to: - Mark, view, and remove featured questions - Add filters to sort by newest, oldest, and most upvoted questions - View lecture and section information for each question for more context We hope these updates help you interact with and support learners more easily across devices than ever before! To check out the changes, sign in to your account on the Udemy mobile app, tap Switch to Instructor View under the Account tab, and then tap Q&A under the Inbox tab.

Hi everyone! Our AMA session with Jacob will be starting in just 10 minutes. There is still time to register and join, just click on this link. We hope to see you all there!

Bella · ‎01-25-2023

Great post @Alexia, bumping to see if other instructors can share their experience! 🙂

Bella · ‎01-24-2023

Hi @RaquelCoelho, great question! Your rank will remain the same, regardless of the community you're engaging with. The only thing you'll notice is that your rank will be localized when visiting different language communities, but your progress will be the same. I hope this helps! Bella Almeida Udemy Community

Hi @CosminCoste323, this issue should now be resolved. Could you please confirm if you're still experiencing this problem when searching for topics in the Marketplace Insights tool? Thanks in advance!

Bella · ‎01-24-2023

Hi @LeandroRolon, thank you for reporting this! We're currently investigating an issue with the Marketplace Insights tool not displaying certain course topics, so there is a chance this is the reason why you're not being able to research your topic. We apologize for this inconvenience. Our team is working to resolve this ASAP and we will let you know once we have an update. Thank you for your patience! Bella Almeida Udemy Community

Bella · ‎01-23-2023

Hi @Boris035, I apologize for the delay in responding here, but to confirm, our current focus is on expanding the Udemy Business program in China. The development of this expansion is still at a very early stage, so we are not able to share any further information about it. However, we will certainly share any updates with the community once we do. Thank you once again for your inquiry! Bella Almeida Udemy Community

Bella · ‎01-23-2023

Hi @NagaSaiNikh517 I just wanted to add another piece of information I've obtained after researching this a bit further. In Udemy's case, we are required to withhold tax from copyright royalties when the student taking the course is in the US. This is separate from any tax you owe in your country. I hope this additional information helps!

Bella · ‎01-23-2023

Hi @Ahmed_Jendoubi, excellent question! This would be best answered by other instructors who are experienced in this subject. In the meantime, could you give us some more details about what you're planning to do on your course so the community can better assist you? Thanks! Bella Almeida Udemy Community
