Course update: April 6, 2025: I have just completed building this course out to align with my new book. Once the content exceeded 2 hours it became a paid course. This was a mini-course which is now built into a full course, to help individuals and organizations learn about cyberlaw and all that entails. Law is everywhere, cyber is everywhere, so cyberlaw is now a part of our society and daily life.
We all need to know about law and cyberlaw. Allow me to share some of my knowledge with you.
This course is not for everyone! But it is right for some. It is academic type lectures, using my PowerPoint slides, my research, my brain, my skills (such as they are). There are no fancy graphics and no fancy video editing. It is not entertainment and you will need an attention span of at least ten minutes. Consider your personal preferences, and see a few sample videos before you decide if this is right for you. If you have a problem or need something, message me.
Why this course? I have learned about cyberlaw over the years. First prosecuting cybercrime, then in private practice. I teach students and professionals about law, technology, cybersecurity, cybercrime, and privacy. I've written books on the topic. It was time to share these materials with a broader audience and I already have other courses on Udemy.
It was time to build this course and I started with a short, free course (free courses must be under 2 hours). After I published my book on cyberlaw, I built it into a fuller course, longer than two hours (courses that exceed two hours can not be offered for free).
Here is the outline (don't forget to download the handout with lecture 1 and see my resources webpage).

Conclusion and thank you
Law is for everyone and that means cyberlaw too. It is not just for lawyers.
If you read this description and take the course, I hope you will see that the course meets and exceeds the description, with considerable quality and effort. If you see that, and feel it is worthy of a five star review, I would appreciate that to recognize my efforts.
Revision note: On 3/14/2025 I started building this from a free (less than 2 hour course) into a full course. I completed this build out on 4/6/2025. Now it is an eleven hour course with all new content. There is one lecture to parallel each chapter of my 2025 book on cyberlaw.
