Lesson Progress

Our biggest concern is helping you update your lesson progress. Our new system tracks progress on lessons as opposed to videos like we did in our old system. This means I can’t easily bring over your progress since it doesn’t directly convert. The idea moving forward is that videos are things you watch, lessons are things you complete, and courses are major goals you progress towards that have a progress meter.

To help you out, we have added a button on new lessons right sidebar that will take you to the old version where you can see your video progress if you were using that system. Ideally, you will see a lesson, and know if you can do the material, and if not, we don’t recommend marking it complete until you can.

Additionally, we have a bookmarking feature now that will allow for you to save lessons in whatever type of organization that fits the way you train.

If you have questions about the progress or need help let us know!
