Teaching the course shouldn't require you to build an education company.

Developing excellent professional education is one thing. Operating it is another. Accreditation, production, technology, enrollment, completion tracking, certificates, regulatory reporting, student support and administration can quickly become more complicated than developing the course itself.

You don't have to become a continuing-education company to share what you know.

Publishing Economics

30%

Publishing Partner royalty

A straightforward publishing relationship.

Publishing Partners receive a 30% royalty on qualifying course revenue after required third-party regulatory fees, applicable taxes and refunds.

Westbay assumes the ordinary costs associated with production, publishing, technology, administration, student support and marketing.

Final publishing terms are set forth in the applicable Publishing Partner Agreement.

Westbay invests in the courses we publish.

For programs accepted for publication, Westbay ordinarily provides and funds the production resources required to prepare the program for publication. We make that investment because we believe the course belongs in the Westbay catalog.

There is no pay-to-publish model.

Have something worth teaching?

You don't need a super polished course, a studio or expertise in compliance education administration. You need professional expertise and an idea worth exploring.
