Hey @Builder we've heard that some folks are running into some loading issues. If you're unable to load the AU page, we recommend trying to log out and log back in. To do that you'll just need to click on the profile image in the bottom left corner of your screen and click logout. This should bring you back to the home page where you can log back in. Hopefully this will resolve any issue. I'll attach a screenshot of what the issue might look like below.

Sorry if you ran into this issue, we're doing our best to make sure you can continue the course uninterrupted. We'll be fixing the source of this issue so you won't run into this again.
