Udemy Logos - Please Request Permission
Our logos are some of our most recognizable expressions of the Udemy brand. As such, we ask that you help us protect this important asset by requesting permission before using it.
Instructor Kit: However, we do understand that our instructors want to be able to share their courses and accomplishments with the world. That’s why we have created the Instructor Social Kit, which is a brand kit instructors can use to share their achievements. All uses of the Instructor Social Kit must abide by the guidelines contained within the kit. Happy teaching!
