How this checkpoint is assessed

Your instructor chooses one of three paths, so every student can succeed whether or not their venture moves forward:

Option A (default): 40% Skill Track, 40% Venture Track, 20% Integration
Option B: 100% Skill Track, for students whose ventures don't progress
Option C: 100% Venture Track, for experienced students

Looking ahead

Module 2 builds directly on this evidence, so keep your portfolio up to date.
