Learning Paths

Stack the courses into a track.

Each course here issues a certificate. A path is the stack that adds up to a rung on the Skills Spectrum — a sequence that takes you somewhere. Follow one end to end, or jump to the one that fits where you are right now.

The paths

Six tracks, Explorer to Frontier.

Every step is a real course or a real bench — nothing is a placeholder. Certificates stack: finish a path and you hold every certificate in it. Complete a path's courses on this device and claim the path certificate below.
