We’re excited to announce that the Unreal Authorized Instructor program is expanding to include on-demand instructors.

The Unreal Authorized Instructor program features Unreal Engine experts dedicated to teaching and sharing their technical skills.

Until now, the Authorized Instructor badge has only been available to those delivering in-person or live virtual training.
 
With this update, the Unreal Authorized Instructor program will recognize online instructors creating content that is available to view on demand, offering greater flexibility and accessibility to learners. 

This new category of instructor will meet the same high standards maintained by the Epic Education, Learning, and Training Team.
 
For current and prospective Unreal Authorized Instructors, it will provide new teaching opportunities and greater reach.
 
The expansion is part of Epic’s drive to evolve the Unreal Authorized Instructor program so that it can meet the needs of a growing and diverse learning community. Meet some of them below.
Cobra Code has been working with Unreal Engine for six years, specializing in gameplay programming and paper 2D within the games industry. Their game development experience led to teaching about it on YouTube, where they focus on helping learners master the creation of 2D and 2D/3D hybrid games with Unreal Engine.
Christen Main has been working with Unreal Engine for ten years, specializing in tool development through Vertical Third within the games industry. With experience in creative direction, world building, and user experience design, she focuses on helping learners develop a myriad of Unreal Engine and game development skills through the Epic Games Game Design Professional Certificate.
