Learning Bridges
Smooth transitions between academy parts.
Each bridge helps you:
- Consolidate what you learned in the previous part
- Connect concepts to what comes next
- Preview skills you'll develop

Why Bridges Matter
Part N skills → Gap → Part N+1 skills
Without bridges, you might wonder:
- "Why do I need this?"
- "How does this connect to what I learned?"
- "Am I ready for the next part?"
Bridges answer these questions.
How to Use Bridges
Before moving to the next part:
- Read the bridge guide
- Complete the self-assessment
- Review any concepts you're unsure about
- Try the bridge exercises
If you're struggling:
- Go back to the previous part's lessons
- Don't skip — each part builds on the last
