How Much Do Session Leads Make?

I read that they make $95,000-$165,000. Is this accurate? I've also read they are independent contractors. Would like some confirmation as I saw a job posting not too long ago.

Has anyone fought a job after completing Udacity course?

What course did you take? What was your experience and did it prepare you for an industry certification? Did you get an internship or employment?

Udacity vs Coursera

Hello all. I have a question between Coursera and Udacity. A Udacity membership is $249 a month which is about $2,988 a year, and Coursera is currently offering a year subscription for a $199 per year.

Both are very popular MOOC and I was wondering what are the pros and cons of each provider, besides the obvious price difference. Any advantages with Udacity?

Udacity Removed AI for Trading Nanodegree Completely

Hi Guys,

unfortunately Udacity removed the AI for Trading Degree completely from their catalog and as well from every personal account. There is no possibility anymore to download the content. Additionally the support has no possibility to provide the content anymore. This is extremely unsatisfying because I payed a lot for the degree.

Would anyone of you who finished and downloaded the content share it?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Can I have 2 udacity accounts ?

Hello there, recently I just get involved in a course with my personal account on Udacity through a scholarship program. And at the company, I also have another Udacity account to adapt with the company requirements. My question is that can I have 2 accounts at the same time to get the certificates, as I has already verified through my personal account and felt that it may be not be eligible to verify through my company account to get the certificates ?

Intro to Machine Learning free Course

Hey!

I enrolled in the free version of the "Introduction to Machine Learning" course and am new to machine learning. I've finished the first two units, but I'm questioning whether it's worth continuing. The materials seem pretty old and outdated, dating back 9 years!

Lack of Customer Support

I am new to Udacity and I am currently enrolled in this course as my first course on Udacity.

https://preview.redd.it/rdzxbacpnabd1.png?width=1898&format=png&auto=webp&s=7c314498fe5bdbe1ae61614e03178b21821cfc56

I am on a verge of completing a project. But I found an error in the finalized notebook which isn't supposed to happen. And that prevents me from submitting a project.

https://preview.redd.it/bdlrdmqznabd1.png?width=1319&format=png&auto=webp&s=0c79eca71ec9a1af78605e23637bb5901338a506

I learned that it was because "Manage Endpoints" permission access is denied. This is the step required in preparing the environment. But I am new to AWS so I follow their tutorial. This is what they show.

https://preview.redd.it/05gnh8r6oabd1.png?width=1216&format=png&auto=webp&s=2a11d5264e6c32f1bcb19c9c76603a77f6f9552c

But when I do it practically, (following all the steps correctly, and I have tested it multiple times) this is what I can find. Two permissions are missing. I assume it is due to update in AWS services. But this causes me not able to build permitted environment.

https://preview.redd.it/m843wwsfoabd1.png?width=1919&format=png&auto=webp&s=48ea05c990dcb0d5348e48f92da3a521365cdee1

Despite the quality of the course, the complexity of settings, the tutorials ain't up-to-date and there is no one to talk to. I have spent a lot of time on other learning platforms like Coursera, and there are always someone giving solutions out there with discussions. So I clicked on help but guess what? It redirects me to the very same page. I am so much frustrated.

https://preview.redd.it/ky4mebkxpabd1.png?width=283&format=png&auto=webp&s=d1431a72b04d19b41e73217f6ee321da7a41392d

Sorry for venting out, I really do not know what to do next. The platform is horrible.

Is Udacity still worth it?

I noticed some courses are very interesting like robotics, ML/AI. Should I pay monthly subscription to access those? Lots of bad reviews in this channel..

Can't checkout

I wanted to buy the machine learning devops nanodegree program. Might be a bad idea, but seemed like a good opportunity for me. My company would pay for it. Anyway, my problem is that I can't buy it. I've been trying for days, but when I click on the enroll now button, the link points to checkout, but I get redirected to a support article about checkout.

Very annoying. Support is useless. I couldn't even get to talk to a human. I don't have time for it, but the support chat also worth its own rant.

Am i alone with this problem? I am also from central europe btw. But dont see any error or warning.

When would I get the result of my investigation?

My account has currently been blocked due to plaigiarism and I am unable to submit any files. When I reached out to support staff they informed that they would conduct and investigation and get back to me in 5 days. It has been 6 days and I have not received any email. I have tried writing complaints and reaching out to the staff but neither helped. The support tickets have not been answered, even those which I have sent a week back. I have tried chatting with a representative but when I try to reach out I get an error message instead. I am not sure what I can do here. I would wait ideally, however my subscription ends soon and I would not like to invest more money into a course as it is a substantial amount.. When do I know that the investigation has been conducted?

Udacity just cancelled all Nanodegrees in my country

No, I do not live in Narnia. Just received email stating, that Udacity will cancel my Nanodegree due to the fact that I'm customer from Central Europe. Also I will not be able to enroll in any other Nanodegrees in the future.
Udacity is going downhill and I tend to think it will go bankrupt soon.

DO NOT spend a dime on Udacity, they will steal what you paid for anytime

Udacity revoked my static access to my completed Nanodegree course, and asked for hundreds $ to recover it

I graduated from ‘AI for Trading’ Nanodegree in 2021 and gained permanent static access (according to their policy at the time of my subscription and also of current) to the course material after spending hundreds of $$$ and tons of hours taking the course.

Right now Udacity told me I’m no longer allowed to access the course after they changed their subscription model in September 2023. They are asking me to pay another hundreds $$$ to regain what I already paid for and what they promised me at the beginning.

Even funny and ridiculous is they were offering me 30% off discount to re-activate my access with an apology of their inability to adhere to their own policy, however their website are offering 40% discount to everyone else lmfao!

If you are thinking paying hefty fees for theri overpriced courses, stop right now because they could take away what you paid for and exploit more money from you.
