Hey, are you worried about being regulated as a school at all in the state you're operating in?
- derektlo 9y agoNope, we aren't regulated as a school so we're not worried about this!
- thebiglebrewski 9y agoBut you do provide courses to people for money, right?
- derektlo 9y agoCurrently, all of our courses are actually free! We will be releasing a new version of Py on iOS within the next day or two that will contain a premium subscription that unlocks access to new premium content we're rolling out.
- thebiglebrewski 9y agoSooo....sounds like you're about to become a school that takes money? Are you worried about regulation now?
- glennon 9y ago@thebiglebrewski -- do you have a link or reference to the regulations of concern? I did a quick web search and did not find anything relevant.
- briandear 9y agoIf there is a regulation about this, it’s ridiculous. A great example of government overreach. Udemy isn’t regulated as a school. Duolingo isn’t regulated as a school. Considering this product as something that ought to be regulated is madness. Regulations are the enemy of innovation. Unless there is a health or safety issue, government ought to stay the hell out.
- SwellJoe 9y agoWhat regulations are you talking about? You can teach anyone anything (legal) you want and get paid for it, and you don't need anyone's permission. What horror show of a country do you live in that someone would get in trouble for being a tutor?
