Further Reading & Resources
To have your channel added to YouTube EDU and to become a YouTube EDU partner, there are two steps:
1. Become a YouTube Partner
Once your channel is up and running, you can get access to advanced features such as premium branding,
longform video uploads, advanced analytics, and/or video revenue sharing by applying for the YouTube Partner
Program. This also gives you the option to monetize your videos.
*Please note: You don’t have to place advertisements on your videos to join the YouTube EDU Partner Program;
however, we encourage you to opt in to the option to monetize. Opting into this option will NOT place any ads on your
videos, you’ll still have to manually place ads - this simply gives you the option to do so on a per-video basis. Please read
more about advertising as an EDU partner here.
2. Nominate Your Channel to be Added to YouTube EDU
You can nominate a channel to be added to YouTube EDU. Please note that the content provider must be part of
the YouTube Partner Program (above). We ask that you also please confirm the channel is not already on YouTube
EDU before submitting your nomination.
