Online education site Udemy is stepping up its appeal to instructors and students whose native language is not English, introducing a multi-lingual version of the site. Udemy.com is now localized for Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, Italian, Russian and Turkish. This does not mean all content is available in all of those languages, but the website itself — all the user interface for navigating the site and searching the course catalog — is available in all those languages, making it easier for those who are not native English speakers to browse the site and find content in their native language, according to Dennis Yang, president and chief operating officer of Udemy. A planned next step is to provide subtitles in other languages, he said.
