Course Description
Online course creation has never been easier, faster, or simpler. But creating a bestseller on Udemy that reaches a wide audience, has an impact, and makes your significant money is difficult. This course is designed for people who are really serious about their online instructor careers. If you are beyond the stage of being impressed with yourself just for having an online course and want more, then this course is for you.
Prospective students, please note: this course is only for people looking for advanced tips and strategies on how to create best selling Udemy courses. This is not a course that will cover every aspect of technology needed for basic video production, editing, or lighting in online course creation.
Message from The instructor:
"I've been in the online training world since 1998. I’ve been publishing courses on Udemy since 2014. I have made every mistake in the book. I have lost small and medium-size fortunes by doing things the wrong way when it comes to online course creation. This course is about helping you not make those mistakes. Now, I have created a dozen best-selling courses on Udemy. This is not quite as impressive when she realizes I have 100 other courses that have not become best sellers. I’ve learned the hard way and now I’m prepared to share my secrets with you so that you can learn in an easier, faster, and more productive way. I want to shorten your learning curve. If you’re serious about creating best-selling online courses here on Udemy, then this is the course for you."
TJ Walker
If you only take one course on online course creation, then don’t take this course. There are many other excellent general, all-purpose courses here on this platform that cover all the nuts and bolts of course creation. But if you’re serious about a career that includes being an online instructor, then you should buy many courses on the subject, and this should be one of them.
There are more and more courses published every single day on Udemy. Simply creating a professional or even pretty good course and posting it on Udemy is not enough, unless you want to languish in obscurity. If you want to have an impact, then you must create an online course that truly stands out, delivers high value, and that convinces students and prospects alike that it is truly the best course in the niche.
This course will help you avoid massive time-wasting exercises and traps that most instructors fall into, like editing out every uh and um from their videos. Instead, this course will get you to focus on highly strategic elements that will make your course stand out in the marketplace.
If you want to create online courses and do it in a way that helps reach the most people and makes you profit, then enroll in this course today.
Please note: this course is not for first-time instructors looking for online course creation technical advice on what cameras to buy, how to set up a studio, etc.
Please note: This course is Unofficial and is not endorsed by Udemy officials. TJ Walker is not an employee of or a consultant to Udemy. Walker is an independent instructor who has more than 100 courses on the Udemy platform and has had more than two dozen bestselling and highest-rated courses on the platform since 2014.
Here is what Udemy students say about this course:
"I love TJ's minimalist course approach, no-frills, no annoying effects flying on presentations. I love the fact that I can see the presenter, the experience feels more personal. I am yet to go through the rest of the course but I have a very good feeling about this one! Thank you TJ. I am hoping to get a full understanding of what makes an online trainer and expert." Nadia Belu
"Great Content! I have learned a lot. Thanks, TJ!" Marcel Riemer

actually, he is repeating his words every single time, he doesn't have content and concentrate how to make money from a long course. so much long courses with no new knowledge to make the educater pay the money and search about any hint through the ninty nine short videos. really so bad.

Thank you TJ! I have learned so much and grown so much using your courses. As always you motivate, inspire, and educate. Your enthusiastic student, Robert. P.S. Thanks for the bonus material.

Talking about money and bestselling from the beginning does not leave good tirst impressions. I joined for the phrase "online teaching" to see its practicality in the response to COVID-19 closure of schools.
By Kausar Bilal on 9/8/2019
It has been a really useful course where TJ not only sounds professional but also very honest. Moreover, his course is both encouraging and motivating. Above all, TJ is there to give the feedback over first two videos of a course, which is very supportive of him. Thanks TJ!
By Imran Afzal on 6/5/2019
I consider TJ Walker to be like my own personal mentor when it comes to the online course business. I have listened carefully to everything he says and followed his advice. The results? I now have 7 courses and I am making more than $8000 per month from my Udemy revenues. Thank you TJ
By Konrad Swart on 4/8/2019
This course is a real eye-opener! To be honest, I have not yet made a single course. So I go right against his advice of being experienced. He speaks so clearly, that I honestly think it is either unnecessary, or I take this course again after having made my first course. Maybe THEN I see that he is right about having a course created first. But, up till now, I can understand everything he said without having any experience with creating online courses. I think he saves me a lot of unnecessary trouble, like focusing on editing etc.. So... Great Course!
By Nancy Sungyun on 1/2/2019
One of the things I love about TJ is his care. What I mean by that is that I can feel his passion to teach, that he wants me to learn. I also love his direct and no-nonsense approach and his very honest approach. I am very thankful that I found this teacher!

T. J.'s always going to deliver far more value than you bargained for, no matter what the topic or your expectations... that's just his personal philosophy and "business model". After sitting through literally hundreds of his lessons, I've come to see him as more than just an instructor, but also as a (virtual) mentor and a role model.
By Thallys Alexandre Cardoso Costa on 12/2/2018
I have been against your advice, and even though I have never set up a course, I am learning a lot from you. I think it is essential to take your course, before you start, you speak the reality of this market, that's what I was looking for! Thanks for everything! (One observation, my main language is Portuguese, but I understand perfectly).
