Udemy enables anyone to create webinars or online courses and share them with the world. On Udemy, users can create an online course using text, video, pictures or any other media form available on the web. Udemy targets the online education market, which is over $26 billion, and specifically hopes to capture part of the $1 billion spent on online tutoring in the US. Udemy is unique because it provides teachers with a full set of tools to create a full-featured online course, including the ability to conduct live and recorded courses, and pull content from other UGC sites such as YouTube, Flickr and Scribd. Udemy will be launching in Q1 2010, after 2 years of development and an extremely full-featured product.

Udemy provides online course creation and webinar tools for free. Educators can stream their own course to as many students as they want, and can provide both recorded and live content to their students. We provide these services free because we believe in encouraging as many users to come to our site as possible. Ultimately, we make money when our instructors make money. We will do a 15% revenue share with those who charge for their course.

We are the only user-generated online education site in the US with its own technology. Our live platform is built entirely from scratch and provides teachers with the ability to conduct live courses with both presentations and a virtual whiteboard.
Yes - definitely! Our site will be free for everyone when we are ready to launch. We're working on a few things behind the scenes over the next month and then we'll launch.
The reason we created a profile in advance is to enter the New Way to Work competition, because we felt like Elance's mission jived extremely well with our story.
