Comme évoqué plus tôt cette année, améliorer nos modèles tarifaires est un objectif clé pour Udemy en 2023. En plus de tester de nouvelles méthodes pour fixer les prix, nous évaluons également nos stratégies promotionnelles. Bien que les promotions aient toujours été un moyen important pour stimuler le nombre d'inscriptions, nos fréquentes promotions et réductions importantes sur l'ensemble du site ont rendu difficile la création de sources de revenus réguliers pour les formateurs et l'établissement de la valeur réelle d'un cours pour les participants.   En réponse, nous allons essayer une nouvelle approche de la tarification en France au cours des prochains mois. À partir d'aujourd'hui, nous réduisons le nombre de promotions et de réductions dans la région, ainsi que nos prix non promotionnels de manière à ce qu'ils soient plus proches de nos prix de vente moyens.   Nous surveillerons de près les indicateurs clés, tels que le nombre d'inscriptions, la participation et les revenus, tout en nous alignant sur les réglementations françaises en matière de tarification, afin d'optimiser cette nouvelle approche tarifaire. En fonction des performances observées, nous procéderons aux ajustements nécessaires et vous informerons de toute mise à jour importante. Comme toujours, nous nous engageons à construire un modèle durable à long terme qui propose aux participants des cours pertinents et de haute qualité, tout en rémunérant équitablement vos efforts. Nous apprécions votre coopération lors de la mise à jour de notre approche tarifaire en France. ... View more

Hi Instructors,   We're excited to announce that our improved coding exercises are now live! There’s a fresh new look, new guidance features, and an expanded language library. Here's a summary of the key improvements:   A (familiar) new look  – With an IDE-like interface, your coding exercises will look just like what a learner expects to see in a modern dev environment.  A tool that teaches – Because “wrong answer” never helped anyone figure anything out, you can now provide hints, solutions, and related content to each coding exercise. A getting started guide - A set of steps and best practices to help either build your first coding exercise or to improve your existing ones. A growing language library - You can now create coding in C# 11 and SQLite 3, bringing the total number of coding exercise languages on Udemy to 22.   You can learn more about these changes at this Teaching Center article. We hope you enjoy these new features and please let us know if you have any feedback or questions. Happy coding! ... View more

Hi all,   Today, Udemy reported fourth quarter and full year 2022 earnings, posting strong results and closing out our first year as a public company with a 22% year-over-year increase in annual revenue.   However, as many of you have discussed here in the Community, Udemy is not immune to the macroeconomic impacts that have continued to affect the global economy. In order to stay ahead of these headwinds and safeguard Udemy’s long-term growth, we are taking action to better align our cost structure with our expectations for revenue, demand and profitability. As a result, we have made the very difficult decision to reduce our global workforce by 10%. We believe these actions position us well to grow through this challenging environment and accelerate our path to profitability, while continuing to prioritize investments in areas that will be most impactful for learners, instructors and Udemy Business customers.   It is important to note that these actions are not a reflection of the health of Udemy’s business. Demand across our marketplace and the Udemy Business platform remains healthy. During Q4, we saw more than 35 million monthly visitors come to Udemy, an increase of 6% from the prior year, and 1.36 million monthly average buyers of individual courses and subscriptions. We expect this stability to continue in 2023, leading to solid full year revenue growth, despite the challenging macroeconomic environment.   We remain committed to bringing your content to the world and will continue to invest in products and services that support you. As we look towards the future, we are optimistic and bullish about our partnership to help improve millions of lives and businesses through learning.   With gratitude,  Chrystie & the Udemy Instructor Team ...
