Hello

I've created a course and even though I used free coupons, I didn't have a single visitor.
Are students able to see my course?

It says access denied for some of the topics -'you do not have this privelege'. Is this because I am new?

Hey @CarolEdson641, can you try again, please?

[CarolEdson641]

Done, thanks.

Hey, 

I am new here. Professionally, I am American Certified Medical Laboratory Scientist, Currently Working in the United Arab Emirates. I try to find some medical-related courses but not found many related courses. Currently, there is too much scope of Molecular Biology due to the current pandemic, but according to Udemy insights, there are no figures related to Medical professional courses. I need an expert opinion if I started to teach professional medical technologies and methodologies courses. Is it beneficiary or not. 

[MariaG]

Hey @WalidAli , I'm bumping this reply for visibility. We'd like to hear more from other instructors about this!

[Monica2021]
