Talk to Author OnboardingThe economics, in one example
A worked example for a board-certified specialist authoring a 4-hour CE course at $179.
The fee is the same at every course price.
What you get as an author on urVetEdu
Six capabilities that respect your time as a clinician-educator.
You keep 90% of every sale.
urVetEdu takes a 10% platform fee on the standard plan (5% or 15% on other institution plans), so authors keep 85–95% of each enrollment. RACE submission handling is planned.
You own your content. 90-day takedown right.
Your scripts, slides, videos, and case write-ups are yours. urVetEdu holds a non-exclusive license to distribute. You can pull a course off the platform with 90-day notice; existing enrollees keep their credit, and W3C verifiable credentials they've earned still verify against your institution's signing key.
Bulk RACE re-approvalPlanned
RACE approval expires every 2 years, and re-approval means AAVSB submission forms, updated bibliographies and a deadline per course. urVetEdu will surface an expiring-soon column with 90/60/30-day flags: check the courses, click "Submit for re-approval", and the platform fills the AAVSB form fields for you to review, sign and submit.
Monthly gross, net, refunds, 1099-NEC YTD — one page
Per-course revenue dashboard: monthly enrollments, gross revenue, platform fee, refunds, your net, next payout date, 1099-NEC YTD running total. Payouts onboarding takes 5 minutes; payouts monthly on the 15th; 1099 issued by January 31. No more reading quarterly PDF statements to figure out what you made.
Sell recorded AND a live cohort. Same content, two SKUs.
Your $179 recorded course is one product. A $349 quarterly live cohort with Q&A using the same content is a second SKU. Different price point, different audience, no double-authoring. Live cohort uses cohort messaging + Live Studio whiteboard, and the platform handles registration caps, cancellation, and waitlist.
Bring residents into authorship with auditable splits
Configure per-course royalty splits between you, co-authors, and research-assistant contributors (e.g. 80/15/5). Permission tiers: co-author with full edit rights, contributor with attribution and no edit rights post-submission. Splits disburse automatically each month. Audit log of who touched what.
Frequently asked questions
Real questions from authors evaluating where to publish their next course.
Do I need an institutional affiliation to author here?
No. Independent authors are first-class. Your course can attach to urVetEdu as the sponsoring institution (we hold the RACE program-sponsor relationship), to one of our partner institutions, or to your own RACE program number if you already hold one.
Who handles RACE submission?
urVetEdu by default. We are listed as the RACE Program Sponsor of record for courses we host. AAVSB fees are absorbed in the platform fee, not billed to you. If you hold your own RACE program number, you will be able to submit on your own letterhead using the submission-packet generator (planned).
What about content ownership?
Yours. Non-exclusive license to urVetEdu to distribute while the course is on the platform. 90-day takedown right. Existing enrolled students keep their access and their already-earned W3C verifiable credentials remain valid. No content-lock-in.
Can I bring co-authors and residents into a course?
Yes. Per-course royalty splits (you set them), permission tiers, audit log of who touched what. Splits disburse automatically each month. Residents typically receive 5-20% on courses they contributed to.
When and how are payouts made?
Monthly, on the 15th, via direct deposit. Payouts onboarding takes 5 minutes. 1099-NEC issued by January 31. Net-30 from each course's revenue recognition. International authors (Canada, UK, AU, EU) supported via our international payouts processor (Canada, UK, AU, EU).
