Can anyone help me, I am trying to create courses using Captivate for Udemy, but even after saving the courses as pdf files, Udemy will not reconize them. NOw I am back to square one because according to Udemy techs, they do not support Captivate files.

What do they support?

I believe they are expecting video files of some sort.  Although some of their courses include pdf's, but the main content is mostly video.

Cp has an option to create as a video demo.

But since you already created it, I'm not sure if there is an easy way to convert it for video output.

Yep, you lose all interactivity when publishing to video.

Udemy, Lynda.com, Total Training and other similar models are based on simple "watch the video to learn" type of consumption. The only real interactivity you get is an ability to pause, rewind, fast forward. Basically anything you can do with a video.

Not sure if they let you upload traditional elearning courses like it sounds you created.

They may want you to use their built in quiz creator for the interactive quizzes.

Best to ask them at this point.
