My Udemy courses (and coupon codes)
I now have eight courses on Udemy covering law, cyber, and learning.
Over the years I have invested time building content and resources for my formal teaching of students at the undergraduate, graduate, and law school level, then I started putting it out to a broader audience.
My current Udemy courses are on:
- Law
- Cyberlaw
- Cybersecurity
- Privacy
- Policies
- Learning
- Ethics in Government.
Some are paid, some are free, some come in both versions.
See my future plans at my Udemy details page.

Remember to check for coupon codes from Udemy or me and shop around so you get the best price. Coupons expire and some have redemption limits. Udemy has periodic sales and does "dynamic pricing" which means the displayed list price fluctuates (more on pricing later).
Ask me:
- Ask me for a new paid coupon code if the above are expired. Don't pay too much for any Udemy course, including mine. I set the price at the lowest allowed by Udemy, and I can generate a code to reduce that further. See more later about Udemy "dynamic pricing" which means prices fluctuate.
- Ask me for a free coupon code if we know each other and you will value it, or if you are a current or past student of mine at an academic institution.
- I no longer offer free coupon codes to the world because it adds too many students who do not properly value the course.

Why did I build them?
I created courses on Udemy to reach more people and share the content and knowledge I have build over years, including years of teaching and building courses at the college, graduate, and law school level relating to cyberlaw, cybersecurity, cybercrime, privacy, policies, and more.
Instead of reaching just a few students a semester in the NYC area, I now reach students around the world. More on this in my Udemy details page.
Value for the student
I am qualified to teach them, I put a lot of effort into them, and I provide quality information in a simple, straightforward, and streamlined manner. We cover a lot of material in a short time. You have the rewind button, supplementary free articles that I have written, refined, and continually improve, and the ability to ask questions.
It's not right for every person, I understand that. It's not entertainment and it doesn't suit everyone's preferences.
But it is right for some.
See my coupon codes to pay the best price.
Not Edutainment
If you are looking for entertainment, comedy routines, sensationalism, fancy graphics, and awesome video editing, then my courses are not for you.
My courses are no-nonsense information and knowledge with bullet point PowerPoint slides, trying to pack the most important nuggets into a lecture which might run 10 to 20 minutes. My courses can exceed some attention spans and be boring for many. I get it.
I am not an entertainer, and I never will be. I will never have a Netflix comedy special, and never perform in any venue or stadium. I can barely edit a video (though I am learning a little). I simply provide a lecture on a topic with my PowerPoint as a visual aid, and provide supplementary reading materials. That's pretty much it.
Right for some, but not for all
The courses aren't for everyone, but are for some. Sort of like this country song from Brothers Osborne.
They are right for people who want some no-nonsense solid information, no frills, and have a decent attention span with some time to invest.
They are simply PowerPoint slides I created and my lecture, plus additional resources from this website (which includes where you can find even more authoritative external references).
See the promo video and sample some of the videos. If it is right for you, welcome! If not then pass it by -- or get your money back promptly and find something that suits your learning style.
Pricing
I did not do this for the money, and I will not get rich off of it. But depending on the course you may need to pay something so remember these details:
- Udemy requires any course over 2 hours to charge a minimum of $19.99 and that's where I set the price
- My courses under 2 hours are free
- Whether free or paid, I put substantial effort and research into each course
- Udemy engages in dynamic pricing based on their algorithms, then does "sale prices" and coupon codes
- Look for my coupon codes (above) and if expired ask me to generate a new one
- Look for Udemy's coupon codes too
- Get yourself a solid deal, and don't pay over $19.99 USD - no matter what Udemy says the "list price" is.
More details on pricing on my Udemy details page.
Value for me
The value for me is knowing that I am providing valuable knowledge to a broader audience on important subjects. I am reaching people around the world, far more people than I could hope to reach by teaching a limited number of students every semester.
Yes, I do receive author royalties and commissions for the course, but that is pretty small ("de minimis" as some say in law).
More details in my Udemy details page.
If you took one of my free Udemy courses and found it valuable, please consider giving back to me.
Udemy
The Udemy platform has their own rules and policies. If you have an account with them and use their platform (including to take my course) you are agreeing to Udemy's terms of use and privacy practices. That is between you and Udemy.
I built my course and I am responsible for my content, but I do not run their platform, I just use it. I need to abide by their rules too.
See my own disclaimers about my content as well. For example, this and my courses are not legal advice nor consulting advice, just knowledge. You assume all risks and I disclaim all liability. We all need to improve our knowledge of law, but sometimes people need individual legal counsel.
Parallel content
I usually have written content to parallel my online courses, such as an article on my website or even a book, and I am also building out some YouTube videos.
More details in my Udemy details page.
Conclusion
With Udemy, my content now has a broader platform now beyond the undergraduate, graduate, and law schools where I teach.
It is incredible that my totals are over 6,000 course enrollments, over 5,000 individual students, and almost 3,000 hours taught as of October 2025. The numbers keep rising, and the feedback is mostly positive.
