I just wrapped up the academic bridging certificate, and honestly, it went pretty well. The online setup was easy to follow, even for someone like me who’s been out of school for a while. I’m feeling somewhat happy with how it all turned out. My main goal was to get out of my old office job and try teaching instead, and this felt like the right first step. I’m grateful for the skills I picked up, especially the lesson planning stuff. It’s a solid option if you’re on a budget.
