Corporations invest heavily in employee training to the tune of $500 billion a year, and part of that investment is licensing online courses for their managers and teams.
Corporate course licensing should be on your radar because it’s an opportunity to earn passive income.
Consumers tend to be limited by their budget; corporations have no limit and could purchase six figures plus (a year) of online course licenses from you, and they could pay that every year.
The good news is you don’t need fancy branding or studio-quality videos to license your online courses to corporations. The corporation wants the base version, and then their team will customize the course to match their company branding.
If you have an online course or could create one, there are corporations that would pay to license them.
Corporate course licensing is your opportunity to earn massive revenue in corporations without needing an ascension funnel or all the work required to get individual consumers to spend money on your course.
The industry standard for corporate licensing is $2,000 per license, per employee, per year. That’s right: corporations pay per license, per employee, and per year—the renewals are fire when they hit your bank account.
Here are 17 specific corporations actively trying to license online courses.
You should contact these corporations if you have an online course(s) and are ready to make passive income with corporations.
FYI: corporations would just get access to the course—no need to have private community for them or offer Q&A access. You would charge corporations an extra (monthly) fee for Q&A access to you.

License Your Online Courses This Month
Two things to understand about corporate opportunities: corporations have large training budgets and write off your course licensing fees as a tax deduction.
Corporations aren’t limited how an individual client would be; corporations pay based on value—not time or perceived benefits.
These are just a few examples. One course licensed could be six figures plus in revenue each year, and it’d be passive.
So the question is, do you have a course you could license to corporations?
