Description
### How could the content be improved?
There is no transition to discussion of badging in the Getting Started on Instructor Certification episode. I believe this is the first discussion of badging in the training, and I don't think it's mentioned in the email that goes out to learners before training, so it might be unclear to learners what this badge refers to. They might wonder if it's a LinkedIn badge or a GitHub badge.
Would it be worth adding a brief explanation of badging either here before the list or somewhere earlier in the episode or lesson?

Research direction
Start in instructor/14-checkout.html at the “What does a badge mean?” section, then read the surrounding lesson content and the linked discussion point. Add a brief explanation that clarifies what the badge refers to and how it relates to instructor training, then verify the transition is clear for learners.
