So you want to launch your own online course?

Online learning has become a popular option in an increasingly busy world. Few people have the time (or money) to sit down in a classroom and learn. This has led to an explosion of platforms like Coursera, Udemy, Podia, Skillshare, Educadium and Ruzuku, and as a result, users can learn almost anything online. Locally, we have sites like Maisha Skills, Kytabu, Zydii and SM3.

This interest means you can also make money teaching people what you know. Udemy, for instance, has more than 20,000 instructors who earn an average Sh800,000 a year.
