Hey Guys, I am starting to build out my first courses (ever) on Udemy. A little background on me. I work full-time at a university as an instructional technology specialist and I am an adjunct professor in emergency management (I used to be a flight paramedic). I am finishing a PhD (dissertation pending) in archaeology. I can definitely do content in instructional technology/design (which should be a hot topic nowadays and a good seller). Of course I already have a lot of emergency management content ready to go because I teach online. My passion is teaching history and mythology. It is what I want to teach but I doubt that there is demand for it compared to soft skills training that are so hot right now. The courses that that I am initially building are Mythology courses, it would be around 25 seperate courses. Each course covers the mythology of a specific region. I am calling it the “Mythology Master Series.” After that series wraps up, I would like to do an “ancient societies master series.” After that wraps up, I will default emergency management and instructional design/technology courses. I am interested in your thoughts. Is there a market for history and mythology content? Are my plans too ambitious? How long should I make each course? I am planning around 4-5 hours of video lecture plus quizzes (etc...) for each course. I look forward to the input of the Udemy veterans! Thanks! Blaine
