Answer 1

You can create custom export entity type using below code

app/code/Vendor/Extension/etc/export.xml

<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
        xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_ImportExport:etc/import.xsd">
    <entity name="customtype" label="Learning Courses Export" model="Vendor\Extension\Model\Export\Courses"/>
</config>

app/code/Vendor/Extension/Model/Export/Courses.php

namespace Vendor\Extension\Model\Export;


class Courses extends \Magento\ImportExport\Model\Export\AbstractEntity
{
    
    const COLUMN_TYPE = 'customtype';
    const COLUMN_MODEL = 'model';
    const COLUMN_PROD_IDS = 'product_ids';

    protected $_permanentAttributes = [
        self::COLUMN_TYPE,
        self::COLUMN_MODEL,
        self::COLUMN_PROD_IDS,
    ];

    public function export()
    {
        // Code For Export
    }

    public function exportItem($item)
    {
        // TODO: Implement exportItem() method.
    }

    public function getEntityTypeCode()
    {
        return  'customtype';
    }

    protected function _getHeaderColumns()
    {
        return $this->_permanentAttributes;
    }

    protected function _getEntityCollection()
    {
        // TODO: Implement _getEntityCollection() method.
    }
}
