US-headquartered online learning and global market place, Udemy, on Monday announced its entry into India with an employee hub in Gurgaon. It has over 30 million students and 42,000 instructors worldwide.

Founded in 2010, Udemy is an online learning destination that helps individuals, companies, and governments gain the skills they need to compete in today’s global economy.

Built on the premise that not all teachers are found in traditional classrooms, the platform allows experts everywhere to develop courses on thousands of topics and share their knowledge with the world.

"Udemy's rapid growth in India shows us the level of demand from students, instructors, and companies for affordable skills training," said Greg Coccari, CEO, Udemy.

While the Udemy marketplace serves the needs of individuals looking to upskill, Udemy for Business is specifically designed for organisations, including business leaders such as Booking.com, Publicis Sapient, Pinterest, and Adidas, looking to continually invest in their workforces.
