UNT Bridge Features

Q. What resources are available for navigating UNT Bridge?

As a UNT learner, a course called UNT Bridge: Overview for Learners is available. This five-minute tutorial will show you features that are available to you as a learner. 

Q. Are we graded on these courses?

For some courses, you will be required to meet a certain percentage to pass a course or program. Courses with pre-determined passing scores will have a notification in the course introduction.

Q. Are there new courses?

Courses specific to compliance have been revamped through the purchase of new content from Vector's course Library. The Learning Library and LinkedIn Learning will always contain a series of courses that you may elect to take. Once you ‘join’ that course, it will appear in the "Added by you" section of your learning library. If you have not selected any elective courses, you will not see the “Added by you” header.

Q. Is the new UNT Bridge mobile friendly?

Yes. Access to UNT Bridge is available to all devices. Due to the nature of how some of the courses were developed, it is encouraged to use a desktop computer or laptop in order to have the best learning experience.

Q. Do I have to complete an entire course or program in one sitting, or will the system record my progress?

The system will record your progress—even if you’re in the middle of a course. When you go back in to continue the course you will be taken to the point in the course where you left off. Therefore, Learners, don’t have to re-do any work they’ve already done.

Q. Can I review content even if I’ve already completed the course or program?

Yes, simply click on the course to review the content.

Q. Is the training within Bridge ADA accessible?

Details regarding ADA accessibility for Bridge LMS can be viewed here: Bridge LMS Accessibility.

Q. Is UNT Bridge replacing Canvas?

No! UNT Bridge houses training for UNT faculty and staff, but not students. Canvas is the learning management system used by students at UNT.

Q. What does the “Required” section mean?

As courses are assigned to each Learner, the “Required” section contains the Programs and individual Course content that have been added to each Learner’s account for review.

As each of these modules is completed those courses or programs (groupings of courses) will move out of this section and moved into the “Completed” category below.

Q. What does the circle to the left of a program mean?

The circle will show you the different courses that are part of that program, so you have a visual of your progress. At any time during a course, you may leave, which will put a marker of filled segments for the portions of the program you have already completed.

Q. What is a program?

A program is a series of courses where each course must be taken in the order they are created.

Q. What is a course?

A course is an individual module of learning. UNT Bridge breaks up the learning opportunities into bite-sized pieces to accommodate a Learner’s busy schedule and her/his learning pace.

Q. Do courses within a program have to be taken in order?

It depends on how the program was created.  

Q. What does the check mark next to a course mean?

The check mark means the course has been completed.

Q. What does the ribbon/certificate symbol next to a course mean?

This symbol indicates that a course or program has a certificate and a completion pin that accompanies it.

Q. How can I access my certificate of completion? 

Certificate of completion can be accessed by simply clicking on the ''view certificate'' option below the course title. If you are still not able to see it, your dashboard view may need to be switched from ''Grid'' to ''List'' view.

Q. What does a paperclip icon to the right of a course mean?

This symbol indicates that there is an attachment associated with that course or program.

Q.  Why do some Learners have a “Required” section and I don’t?

It is possible that in a given period, you are not assigned a course or program to attend or you have already completed those programs or courses. Courses or programs that the office of Institutional Compliance adds that are required for completion will appear in the “Required” section.

Q. The courses and programs say, “Added by You.” Is that correct?

Yes, we want you to drive your own success by utilizing the Learning Library and LinkedIn Learning. Both tools provide more than 6,000 courses that you can take to impact your skill development and coaching.

Q. What is the “Added by You” section?

These are the courses that a learner enrolls themselves in from the options in the Learning Library. You will see the Added by You section appear only after you have selected elective courses from the Learning Library. Courses that you enroll yourself in are designated as optional in Bridge, although you may be given a requirement by your department or supervisor to enroll in and complete a course.

Q. Can I delete courses listed under the “Added by you” section?

Yes, simply click on details on the right-hand side of the course name. You will then be asked if you’d like to remove the course.

Q. Can I delete a program or course after I’m in the course?

It depends on the course or program. You may remove courses on the "Added by You" section.

You will not be able to remove or “Delete” a course or program that is listed under the Required section in My Learning.
