FAQ - Support Questions

Student questions

How can I buy a course?

You can enrol into a course one of the two ways: through Premium/ Life-time subscriptions where you get unlimited access to every course, or by purchasing a single course just for USD$5.00. You may also purchase a course program which is essentially a course bundle. A program purchase will enable you to enrol a bunch at just one price. However, in any case you will need to login and charge your account with credits first.

The minimum re-charge amount is USD $5.00.


What is Scientific Programming School Premium?

Premium is our subscription service that gives you unlimited access to every course.


Do courses come with a Certificate of Completion?

Yes, every course with a Quiz (even free courses) will earn you a Certificate of Completion that you can share on LinkedIn. However, you will need to pass  the course quiz to earn your certificate, which is verifiable from our website.


Teacher questions

Who can teach?

Anybody can teach just about anything. We have some restrictions on what you can't teach and a quality review process. More on that below.


What can't I teach?

Overall, we try to provide a high quality and safe learning experience for all students. Our courses need to be "Academic and Professional" with no exception. We don't allow subjects like: Make money Fast, Dating or romance, Medical misinformation, Dangerous activity, Nudity, Weapons, Violence, Discriminatory courses and Misinformation. Finally, content for young people. Please keep all content aimed at adults.


Is there a review process?

Yes, there is a review process. We ensure that every course is high quality with 720p videos, descriptive lesson names, and that the content doesn't break our rules. This process usually takes about a week and you'll receive an email when your course is published.


How do earnings work?

  • Subscriptions. Students can subscribe to Premium for USD $12.00/month (no auto-renew) and access every course. We then take that subscription money every month and pay out 50% of that to the teachers. Income-per-teacher is based on how many minutes a subscriber watches your course for. The longer they stay with you, the more money you'll make.
  • Organic traffic. Students who decide they just want to buy a single course will earn you a minimum of 70%. Since all courses are sold for $5.00 you'll earn $3.50 per sale. Courses are sold cheaper because we favour the learners more but the amount you receive after the sale is about the same as the Udemy's promo outcomes!

When is payday?

We pay out on the 1st of every month via PayPal. Note: for one-time buyers they have a 30 day moneyback guarantee in which we can't pay you for until that period is over.
