The Students page helps instructors learn more about the students enrolled in their courses, their student’s educational interests, and the market reach of their Udemy content. This article outlines how instructors can access these insights and use them to plan new courses or make improvements to their existing ones.
How to navigate to your Students page
Follow the steps below to navigate to the Students page in your account:
1. Navigate to the course page (Learn how).
2. Click Performance on the left-hand side.
3. Next, click on Students.
Enrolled Students: After selecting All Courses, you will see the total number of unique students enrolled in both your published and unpublished courses. You can also filter a particular course to view the number of enrollments in that specific course.
Please note: Students enrolled in multiple courses will only count once toward your student total.
If you have not been granted permission as a co-instructor to access the Performance metrics of a particular course, then the enrollments from that course will not appear in your student total. As a result, the student total on your instructor profile may differ, since that total counts all unique students enrolled in courses you’re an instructor for, regardless of their permissions.
The student’s avatar will note which of your courses they are enrolled in and when they did. By clicking on the avatar, you will be directed to the student’s profile page.
Your Reach: In this section, instructors can review what countries their students reside in and what languages they speak. The latter is determined by a combination of their browser’s language preference settings, and their account’s language in Udemy. This information may provide insights for localization and new content opportunities. You can also view your market reach for a particular course by selecting it with the course filter at the top of the page.
Additional Student Interests: This section lists the most popular topics that your students are enrolled in, aside from the topics of your existing courses. If you have selected a specific course to view, with the course filter at the top of the page, then that course's topic will be excluded from this list.
This information helps you see what topics your students are interested in, and can help you choose what course you should create next. Click a topic from the list to see the current Udemy marketplace opportunities with the Marketplace Insights tool.
